aerodyne
aer·o·dyne A0113300 (âr′ə-dīn′)n. A heavier-than-air aircraft deriving lift from motion. [aero- + Greek dunamis, power (from dunasthai, to be able; see deu- in Indo-European roots).]aerodyne (ˈɛərəʊˌdaɪn) n (Aeronautics) any heavier-than-air machine, such as an aircraft, that derives the greater part of its lift from aerodynamic forces[C20: back formation from aerodynamic; see dyne]aer•o•dyne (ˈɛər əˌdaɪn) n. any heavier-than-air aircraft deriving its lift mainly from aerodynamic forces.

aerodyne[′e·rō‚dīn] (aerospace engineering) Any heavier-than-air craft that derives its lift in flight chiefly from aerodynamic forces, such as the conventional airplane, glider, or helicopter. aerodyneA heavier-than-air vehicle that can sustain its flight in air principally by self-generated aerodynamic forces and possibly by thrust produced by the engine. Aircraft and helicopters are two types of aerodynes. |
