Some supers with the basic Kryptonian/Argonian/Atlas-type package get flight and strength more or less proportionate, so that they can help a crashing plane land safely. But this would not be the case with Paragon, I take it?

I decided to break that trope. I like the idea she could lift a plane, but not fly carrying one because her flight doesn’t give her enough to push against. She also feels pain at normal levels so fire and bullets hurt.

That doesn’t make sense, though. Pain comes from damage to tissues that contain pain nerves, as well as damage to the nerves themselves. But her tissues and nerves are not being damaged. If she’s feeling pain despite the lack of damage, that’s more in the territory of phantom pain or peripheral neuropathy.

Temperature and pressure cause pain. Damage does as well. Its like a bullet proof vest or a paintball. Skin isnt broken but it hurts like hell. Is it the same level of pain as actual tissue damage, no. But it’s certainly not ignorable.
