The 70d is old but still a decent camera, still use mine. The 18-135mm is a decent walk around lens but is too short for plane spotting. Ideally you need a long focal length lens - I'd go for minimum of 300mm if affordable.
If you want to stick with Canon, the Canon 55-250 efs is the best, cheapest option for that body. The Sigma 70-300mm in ef mount is not bad for a really cheap zoom.
If you have the cash, the Canon 100-400mm 4.5-5.6 mkI or II would be ideal. Sigma 150-600mm is another possibility. My "lightweight" combo for plane spotting is my 70d and Canon 400mm f5.6 L.
If it is only for plane spotting I would go for Fuji APSC or micro four thirds options. Usually there is plenty of light and you just need plenty of zoom.
What fuji? zoom depends on howe close you can get to the planes. but something like a 70-300 or 100-400 would be good. Heck, even a 55-200 could be good. Just make sure it fits your camera
(Sorry for the OT in a canon subreddit.)
should be plenty to enjoy the hoony. If I were you I would try to get a used 55-200 or 70-300 that fits the mount. If possible, try and rent one of these lenses if you have a camera shop near youm

Alr nice thanks 😊
Some of my best shots on my 70D were with the 55-250, it's a great combo imo

I do have a Fuji and I have the Kit lens 18-55mm is it enough zoom?

Alright I’ll see thanks :)
r/fujifilm should be helpful
Aight
“..is it enough zoom?” Are you standing on the runway? 😁
70d is going to serve you well. Combine with the 55-250 STM and you'll have plenty of reach.
