For any fixed non-trivial minor-closed class~$\cal C$ of graphs, the Contractive Bor\o{u}vka's
algorithm (\ref{contbor}) finds the MST of any graph of this class in time
$\O(n)$. (The constant hidden in the~$\O$ depends on the class.)

When the input graph is planar, the Contractive Bor\o{u}vka's algorithm runs in
time $\O(n)$.
