Language of Airships.

There is a squabble as to the cor
rect name for flying machines, air
ships and balloons, and the Aero club
of France attempts to set the matter
straight. "Aearonef" describes a fly
ing machine heavier than air; that is,
an apparatus having no gas bag.
"Aeronefs" are divided into several
classes: "Helicoptera," machines de-
pending on screws for flight; aero
planes" machines propelled by the
Tapping of wings. The expression
aviator very often incorrectly en-
ployed, should be applied only to the
pilot of an "aeronef," as 'aernonaut"
is applied to the pilot of gas balloon.
