I've just read Michael Moorcock's The Blood Red Game first published in 1962, in which are used spacecraft that don't seem to worry about all that pesky stuff like needing enough power for leaving a planet's atmosphere, or burning up on re-entry, or refuelling, or the vast distances involved in travelling between planets.
So that got me to wondering: which book provides the earliest mention of spacecraft that are essentially used like airplanes but for travelling around the solar system/galaxy/universe.
Think Luke's X-Wing on Dagobah or the Millennium Falcon etc
I'm sure the hive-mind here will be able to help
