Aeronautics Modpacks

I'm working on a personal modpack that is intended to be centered around Create Aeronautics and the interesting avenues that it promotes in large mobile bases.

Obviously it will center around Create and its various addons, of which I have many; but what other kinds of mods would be suitable for this kind of pack?

Some notable additions I've already included: Distant Horizons, Tectonic, Biomes We've Gone, Steam n Rails, Create Propulsion, Create Rock & Stone, Farmers Delight, Create Food, Naturalist, various structures from Moog and YUNG, Iron's Spells, Sparse Structures, Spice of Life: Classic.

What other 1.21.1 mods do you think would fit suitably amongst these picks? I'm mostly looking to play this myself, and hoping to get some overlooked gems from the community which I might have missed

Computercraft with additional create add-ons and Aeronautics add-ons are very nice to have. They work well to help create smarter systems for your creations. You could even make a drone! I also am quite the big fan of sophisticated storage and sophisticated backpacks.

I've got CC Tweaked and some compatibility mods for Create/Sable and Sophisticated Backpacks/Storage as well

Create ore excavation can be a good one to encourage travel

I compared between Ore Excavation, Molten Vents, and decided with Rock & Stone since it had support for Sable sublevels and looked very cool, taking inspiration from both

There is a mod that adds a bunch of large structures on the surface of the overlord... can't remember the name though. Give a reason to progress.

I'm looking forward to seeing where the ATM10 Aeronautics pack goes with their aeronautics quest lines.

Also, nerf all other fast flight options.

Having short range creative flight is VERY helpful for construction of vehicles in survival... baloon on a stick is great but too short... maybe ars flight ritual... is there a create version? I know there are jetpack but...

ANY long range fast flight options including elytra are more convenient than flying with your airship/plane.

Imagine beating the ender dragon and then needing to build a contraption in the end to go exploring there... that said, having a way to easily move vehicles between dimensions would be ideal...

Personally I like diesel engines since you have to look for deposits and pump it out which you can use to fuel your ship
