/ˈɛrˌpleɪn/

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: air n.¹, plane n.³

Etymology: < air n.¹ + plane n.³, in sense 2 as alteration of aeroplane n. (compare slightly later plane n.⁵).

†1. In form air plane. A horizontal plane in the air on which an aircraft, bird, etc., is regarded as flying. Obsolete.

1868 Eng. Mechanic & Mirror of Sci. 24 Apr. 91/2 We have yet to see the ‘aëroplane’ with buoyancy sufficient to sustain 150 lb., or with apparatus sufficiently light and portable to make headway on an ‘air plane’.

1874 Belgravia 4 168 Not all the rudders and flappers..can ever enable the aeronaut to navigate his machine horizontally—to one hand or the other of the air-plane on which he is sailing.

1891 Amer. Naturalist 25 797 Its [sc. a bird's] weight is resolved into a normal and parallel component by the air plane of pressure beneath it.

a. = aeroplane n. 1. Now rare.

b. Chiefly North American = aeroplane n. 2. Also attributive.Airplane became the standard U.S. term (replacing aeroplane) after it was adopted by the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics in 1916. Although A.

1906 Sci. Amer. 29 Dec. 487/1 Air-plane is a much better word than aeroplane. It is as good etymologically, and much better when it is spoken.

1907 Westm. Gaz. 19 July 4/2 It is this ease of going against the current, with no motive force in evidence, that is..the despair of the aeronauts with their air-planes.

1917 N.A.C.A. (U.S.) Rep. Nomencl. Aeronaut. 31 Airplane..This term is commonly used in a more restricted sense to refer to airplanes fitted with landing gear suited to operation from the land. If the landing gear is suited to operation from the water, the term ‘Seaplane’ is used.

1933 E. A. Powell Slanting Lines of Steel xi. 172 This was no airplane bomb, but a projectile from a super-cannon.

1978 D. B. Thurston Design for Flying ix. 112 If the airplane is intended for the..private market, thin skin could be used and the weight saved converted to useful load.

1995 Mail on Sunday (Nexis) 1 Oct. 32 No one with any sanity would fly in an airplane if they could walk.

2005 Chicago Sun-Times (Nexis) 4 Nov. 26 New rules that would allow travelers to bring items such as sharp knives and scissors onto airplanes, rolling back post-9/11 prohibitions.

1998 Communications Today 24 Feb. 1 One of the more interesting features [of the smartphone] is an ‘airplane mode’ that turns the radio off entirely.

2010 N.Y. Times (National ed.) 11 Mar. b10/3 The simplest way to cut power to a minimum is to put your smartphone into ‘airplane mode’... You won't be able to receive e-mail messages or make or receive phone calls, but you will stretch your battery.

2019 @bingley567 1 Dec. in twitter.com (accessed 18 Mar. 2021) Couldn't get my wifi to work. After some time, I found that my cat..had walked on the keyboard and put my laptop in airplane mode.
