Mon rêve pour cette année (Le Conditionnel)

A question bout the above linked quiz:

- the sentence to be translated is "the first flight that appeals to us!"

- I put in "le premier vol qui nous plairions!", but the answer is marked incorrect, and the one given is "le premier vol qui nous plairait!"

- The linked lesson is "Lesson: Conjugate regular verbs in Le Conditionnel Présent (conditional mood)"

So I'm not sure what I've done wrong here? Thanks!
