Forms: see aero- comb. form and plane n.³

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding; partly modelled on a French lexical item. Etymons: aero- comb. form, plane n.³

Etymology: < aero- comb. form + plane n.³, partly after French aéroplane (J. Pline 1855, as both adjective and noun, referring to a proposed system of aerial navigation using an airship with a more or less horizontal surface as opposed to the then usual spherical or cylindrical shapes of balloons and aircraft (and also designating an airship of this type); 1864 in sense 2; 1875 in sense 1; apparently irregularly < aéro- aero- comb. form + plan plane adj. (see below)).Pline gives no explicit explanation of the French term aéroplane , and it has been alternatively suggested that the second element is Hellenistic Greek πλάνος wandering (see plano- comb. form²). However, this is unlikely, in view of the meaning in which Pline used the word, and since he also uses the (transparently related) verb planer plane v.² to refer to the motion of this airship. For an account of the word's history in English and in French, and for an (ultimately inconclusive) discussion of whether the use by Wenham in quots. 1866¹, 1866² is independent of Pline's use, see S. Stubelius Airship, Aeroplane, Aircraft (1958) 226–277. See also however Trésor de la langue française at aéroplane for evidence of use by G. de La Landelle in 1864 clearly in sense 2 (distinct from his use in 1863 with reference to Pline's system as noted by Stubelius), which perhaps lends weight to the assumption that Wenham's use (in sense 1) is also at least partly modelled on the French use of the word. The following forms seem to reflect a quadrisyllabic pronunciation, apparently formerly common in colloquial use (perhaps influenced by aerial adj.):1876 Pop. Sci. Monthly Feb. 454 The areoplanes have propelling surfaces which are nearly plane and slightly inclined to the horizon.1915 S. Lewis Trail of Hawk xxii. 203 It's a new areoplane (that's the way he pronounced it), and that dingus in front is a whirling motor.1915 Aeronautics 13 Oct. 256/2 I have never heard anyone pronounce aeroplane in any other way than ‘airoplane’, with perhaps an occasional ‘arioplane’ or even ‘hairyoplane’.1935 ‘J. Guthrie’ Little Country xxix. 411 Half a dozen veterans of the forgotten Maori wars... What with these ‘aereoplanes’, war, like everything else, was not what it had been!

1. A flattened structure, originally plane but later aerodynamically curved, that forms the principal lifting surface of an aircraft; esp. a wing. Cf. aerofoil n. 1, plane n.³ 5. Now disused.

1866 F. H. Wenham in 1st Ann. Rep. Aëronaut. Soc. 33 In the flying mechanism of beetles..when the..wing-cases are opened, they are checked by a stop, which sets them at a fixed angle. It is probable that these serve as ‘aeroplanes’, for carrying the weight of the insect.

1866 F. H. Wenham in 1st Ann. Rep. Aëronaut. Soc. 37 The rude contrivance just described [sc. a glider] had taught, first, that the webs, or aeroplanes, must not be distended in a frame... A thin steel tie-band..served as the foundation of the superposed aeroplanes.

1907 F. W. Lanchester Aerodynamics v. 179 The author does not employ the term aeroplane outside its correct signification, that is to say, to denote other than a true or plane aeroplane; the misuse of the word being avoided by the introduction of the word aerofoil, to denote a supporting member, or organ of sustentation of undefined form.

1910 R. Ferris How it Flies xx. 454 Angle of Entry, the angle made by the tangent to the curve of the aeroplane surface at its forward edge, with the direction, or line, of travel.

2. Now chiefly British. An aircraft which relies on aerodynamic lift for flight; a heavier-than-air aircraft; esp. one having fixed wings and using propellers or jet engines to provide thrust. Cf. airplane n. 2b, plane n.⁵, aircraft n.In the period to 1900 when aircraft were still rudimentary in design and the word was still active in sense 1 the denotation is sometimes not clearly either ‘a surface’ or ‘an aircraft’, but something between the two concepts (see quots. 1868, 1894², 1896). For a full discussion of the development of the term in this period see S. Stubelius Airship, Aeroplane, Aircraft (1958 ) 251ff.The equivalent term in North America is airplane.
