We study the group T
A of rearrangements of the airplane limit space introduced by Belk and Forrest (2019). We prove that TA is generated by a copy of Thompson's group F and a copy of Thompson's group T, hence it is finitely generated. Then we study the commutator subgroup [TA ; TA ], proving that the abelianization of TA is isomorphic to Z and that [TA ; TA ] is simple, finitely generated and acts 2-transitively on the so-called components of the airplane limit space. Moreover, we show that TA is contained in T and contains a natural copy of the basilica rearrangement group TB studied by Belk and Forrest (2015). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published
