The phrase "as a flat plane" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used to describe something that is level, even, or lacking in curvature, often in a mathematical or geometric context.
Example: "The surface of the table was perfectly smooth, appearing as a flat plane under the bright light."
Alternatives: "like a flat surface" or "in a level plane".
Sue looked at this picture through the stereoscope and saw it as a flat plane.
Since the curvature of the Earth's surface is not taken into account, the model surface is treated as a flat plane.
In comparison with the radius of the AFM tip, the surface of the sample can be treated as a flat plane.
If the world is round, it's an enormous diversion, a pointless globe-straddling triangle, but if you map it as a flat plane with the North Pole in the center, the route forms an almost straight line.

Many of the typical surface forms used in computer graphics and computer-aided design, such as flat planes and quadric surfaces, cylinders, spheres, ellipsoids of revolution, as well as more complex fully sculptured surfaces, are easily and accurately represented by rational B-spline surfaces.
Fractures are represented as flat planes of finite dimensions and in most of the cases as circular discs.
All the main fractures responsible for fluid flow are modeled as flat planes in fracture modeling and are fixed through the production simulation procedure.
For this, the sculptor draws an outline on a surface and then cuts away the surrounding surface, leaving the figure raised as a flat silhouette above the background plane.
However these approaches are labor intensive, limited to tissues that can be visualized as a flat 2D image, and are not accurate when the angle of the tissue with the projection plane becomes too large.
The preferred form for connection/disconnection is a set of flat planes.
