If you can get in touch with Dr. Zharkov he'll be able to help you out. He invented the ray that kept an entire city aloft in the sky of Mongo. And he did it in 20 minutes too.

Batman used a Sky Hook when he was extracting the villain from Hong Kong in The Dark Knight. They work, you just need a passing airplane to attach to.
