  1. We already have a word that covers the entire concept of aircraft. I would change this to the question, "How do we distinguish between a {muD Duj} which derives lift from surfaces that remain fixed during flight, i.e. an airplane, and one that derives lift from rotating surfaces, i.e. a helicopter?"
