Please help me to understand a joke

Hi! Please helm me to understand a joke in a textbook. "How can you make a bear fly? - Put him on a bear-o-plane". What's the meaning of the last word? What does the letter O mean? Are there any other examples of using such construction?
Thanks in advance!

"bear-o-plane" is a silly made-up word that sounds like "aeroplane". I think that's all there is to it. This joke is so bad it made me laugh!
