comment
A strange position where a character in a generally good mood runs with their arms fully outstretched to the sides like the wings of an airplane. (Try it, it's fun!) Little kids may be depicted doing it as it looks cute.
A cooler, more aerodynamic variant, with the runner's body leaning foward and the arms swept farther back, like the wings on an F-14 Tomcat, is also often used to indicate a very fast and agile runner. Ninja are frequently portrayed running this way, though they now tend to prefer the Ninja Run. Samurai also run in a similar manner, usually while keeping one hand grasped onto their katana. In a more (apparently) realistic series this may have something to do with the runner having a reduced profile and thus being harder to hit with ranged weaponry, but it's generally just the Rule of Cool. In modern Japan, this pose is known as "buun".

An early Guild Wars 2 bug resulted in this, which some players found hilarious (as shown in this video). Years later for their April 1. joke they brought it back with airplane arms for every player, a pilot's cap, a vintage filter and the PC constantly making airplane noises (even appropriate ones during falling).

Looney Tunes:
In Brother Brat, an aircaft worker leaves her son for Porky Pig to babysit, enthusiastically telling him "We hafta build those planes!" and heading out with arms outstretched — and then seen flying off in the distance!
Bugs Bunny does this in The Hare-Brained Hypnotist, after he is somehow hypnotized into thinking he's a B-19 aircraft.
In 1936's Plane Dippy, Porky has outstretched arms and imitating a plane to tell an army sergeant he wants to be a pilot.

Parodied by one the many NPCs of Sonic the Hedgehog (2006). A man with Sonic hair and a familiar dress style will challenge Sonic to a race, claiming to be the real Sonic, and he reenacts this style of running. He's really, really slow, though, and it's almost impossible to lose against him.

Falco Lombardi runs in variations of this manner depending on the game. In the credits of Star Fox 64, he is seen running exactly this way. Probably appropriate, since he is essentially an anthropomorphic bird... and in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, it's actually Fox that sprints at a full-on Bird Run. Huh. Falco goes for more of a Ninja Run for this game.

Mario runs this way in Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Mario World, and Super Mario Bros. Wonder. In 3 and World, he can take flight when running this way with certain power-ups equipped (the Racoon Leaf and Tanooki Suit in 3, and the Cape Feather in World). He also runs like this in New Super Mario Bros. 2, but only when he has the Raccoon Leaf, in homage to 3.

Avatar: The Last Airbender:
The fire nation kids seem to be a fan of running like a Ninja. The shuriken-wielding Mai runs like this in her first appearance. Ty Lee◊ runs like this on wires during "The Boiling Rock" two-parter. Zuko◊ runs like this during the Final Battle and even Azula◊ runs like this while fighting Aang in "The Drill". Possibly justified in Azula's case as she seems to be using Firebending to propel herself like an actual aircraft, but it fails since Aang halts her with a stream of mud making her lose balance and slip.
Suki◊ along with rest of the Kyoshi warriors run like this. Since they are based off Japanese theatre it's very fitting.
Toph does a unique "swinging arms" version while performing a Earth Wave◊ to go fast.
In The Legend of Korra, the Ninja-like Equalist chi-blockers occasionally display this trope. In Book Two, Korra appears to have adopted it herself.

Super Mario Bros.:
Mario runs this way in Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Mario World, and Super Mario Bros. Wonder. In 3 and World, he can take flight when running this way with certain power-ups equipped (the Racoon Leaf and Tanooki Suit in 3, and the Cape Feather in World). He also runs like this in New Super Mario Bros. 2, but only when he has the Raccoon Leaf, in homage to 3.
When he first appears in Super Mario Galaxy, Mario is seen running towards the Star Festival with his arms out, just because he's such a happy-go-lucky guy. Also, he can run like this in-game in Rainbow form.
Mario runs with his arms outstretched when he's at top speed in Super Mario Odyssey. Interestingly, he can't reach this speed by simply running normally; he needs to have a bit of extra momentum, such as from running downhill or over a speed booster.
In Mario Strikers Charged, Luigi runs around and does this as one of his animations when he scores a goal. He does the same in the Gamecube Strikers Game
Interestingly, while Peach does this while running in Super Mario 3D World, Mario and Luigi don't, instead tucking their arms in while running.
In Mario Golf Toadstool Tour, Bowser Jr's eagle animation shows him doing this before striking a pose

Moble Suit Gundam's Lala Sune loves doing this. Light glows around her when she's doing it.

Seijuu Sentai Gingaman and Hyakujuu Sentai Gaoranger, and their adaptations Power Rangers Lost Galaxy and Power Rangers Wild Force use a variation where they run partially bent over with their arms out in what is apparently intended to be a ready-to-strike-savagely position. It's not as practical as it sounds.
Miratrix of Power Rangers Operation Overdrive seems to have pulled her Airplane Arms straight from Naruto.

Doctor Slump:
Arale is perhaps not only the first manga/anime character to ever do this, but she's also probably responsible for the name, since she does it to pretend she's flying and makes a sound like a jet engine.
Obotchaman does this, too, though less frequently than Arale.

Sonic the Hedgehog:
The title character has run this way ever since Sonic the Hedgehog CD; his Super Mode also flies like this.
Parodied by one the many NPCs of Sonic the Hedgehog (2006). A man with Sonic hair and a familiar dress style will challenge Sonic to a race, claiming to be the real Sonic, and he reenacts this style of running. He's really, really slow, though, and it's almost impossible to lose against him.
Tails (whether he's flying or not), Knuckles, Amy, Cream, and Eggman all do this when running full speed.

In League of Legends, Udyr being in his Phoenix Stance changes his run animation to running with airplane arms, tilting slightly to either side with each step like he's actually pretending to fly. Also Zed, a ninja champion, changes his run animation to airplane arms at high movement speeds.

Kana from Minami-ke does this sometimes. In a desperate situation in episode 5 of Okawari, she Bird Runs all over town. (Unsurprisingly, she skins both knees in the process.)

Space Jam: Hubie and Bertie, cartoon mice, conduct the intros for the Tune Squad. As Hubie intros Michael Jordan, he uses the honorific "His Royal Airness," at which Bertie stops munching cheese and assumes the spread-arm airplane pose, mimicking an airplane making turns.

In The Legend of Korra, the Ninja-like Equalist chi-blockers occasionally display this trope. In Book Two, Korra appears to have adopted it herself.

Dragon Quest:
King Trode in Dragon Quest VIII always runs like this. It may have something to do with how he's cursed to look like a little green troll for most of the game...
In the Nintendo 3DS remake of Dragon Quest VII, Maribel runs with her arms outstretched behind her.
In Dragon Quest XI, Veronica runs like this in contrast to the other party members.

In Dragon Ball Z Gohan and his little brother Goten run like this◊ while training. They likely get it from their father Goku who would often run with Airplane Arms in the original Dragon Ball. In some Generation Xerox Pan runs like this in Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, in the exact same fashion as Arale (whom she's already very similar to in this version).

Everyone runs with their arms trailing behind them aerodynamically in Saint Seiya, at least past the Sanctuary arc. This new style coincides with the updated, wispy character designs. Averted in The Lost Canvas.
