You are
lol (laughing out loud)
Born in 1980s with unknown beginning
The first instance of this abbreviation is in a 1980s Usenet discussion
Grew up as a slang, I have several meanings
Can also mean "lots of love" among other things
From either of my sides, I look the same
It's a palindrome
But look from the top ,I am airplane
Looks like a TIE fighter from Star Wars :)
(from OP:) When you turn LOL upside down, you get 707, which is an airplane.

Could you be
E.T. ?
Born in 1980s with unknown beginning
The movie E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial was created in 1982 and nobody knows where the alien (referred to as ET) was born, itself.
Grew up as a slang, I have several meanings
Grew up as E.T. which could mean many things.
From either of my sides, I look the same
Yes, pretty much.
But look from the top, I am an airplane
This might refer to space exploration because ET is an extra-terrestrial (and "looking from the top" might refer to looking from space). In particular, this might be referring to space shuttles which can look like an airplane (e.g. here and here).

ET might stand for Easy to Talk to, I suppose, which is ironically unlike ET.
