I think naming the variable "plane" and using the ">>>" operator
do a good job of making this hint to the reader.

The JDK code I have maintained uses space after cast.
We don't have a really well-maintained coding standard, but
the closest thing we do have agrees with me:

Nevertheless, you are right - I was surprised that space after cast
is less popular in the JDK sources.
