Up to a duality, the known finite projective planes which are not translation planes all are equivalent to affine planes which contain the type of structure defined below to be a "derivable net". (Insofar as the known finite planes are concerned, this means that the intimate connection between projective geometry and linear algebra still holds for non-Desarguesian planes.)
