So is it too much of a stretch to believe it could produce a plane? (maybe it is now I've written it down  ). Ben could have got hold of all the documents / photo's from the box too to try and convince Michael to do his dirty work.

I still think Ben's "magic box" is more of a metaphor than anything else. Kinda like when Ben told Locke that they have two giant hampsters running in a wheel for electricity.
And Locke's Dad told Sawyer that he was basically kidnapped and woke up tied to a chair in that room that Ben had him held in.
As with many things that Ben says there is probably something to this so called "magic box" , but I don't think it should be taken so literally.
If he had access to a "magic box" that could produce anything or anyone, then why not just do the hocus pocus and snatch up Widmore. Or why go through all the elborate schemes to capture Jack, Kate, and Sawyer when he could just wish them up.
Anyways...... a "magic box" that could produce anything you want could be just a computer connected to the internet.
