Aviation Terms
Often Misused

e IRSHIPS'" are not "dirigi-
"A bles" says Lieutenant Com
mander Clifford A. Tinker, Bureau
of Aeronautfcs. United States
Navy. In an article In McClure's
authoritative manner with the
Shenandoah disaster, Commander
Tinker gives the exact definition
OF words which have come into
constant use since the huge flying
ship crashed in Ohio.
Aviation has nothing to do
with airships. but is the operation
OF heavier-than.air craft. The art
of operating lighter-than.air craft
Is called aerostation, pronounced
air-o-stach'un. All types of
observation-disclosures are aerostats.
An airshir Is an aerostat pro-
vided with propelling system.
If Its engines stop, it becomes
a balloon"
The writer explains that avia.
ton Is not a synonym for aero
nautics. Aviation is the art OF
operating afrplanes and sea planes.
while aeronautics is the ALIEN
bracing word which means the
art of self-sustained flight by any
and every means.
Air ships are not dirigibIes.
Dirigible is an adjective which
means anything that may be
directed or controlled, including
automobiles and steamships. The
woYd is not sufficiently specific
to be used as q noun designating
airships. Airplanes are dirigibles.

slang designating small, non.rigid
airships. Blimp no more fits the

lis are too high.
1t was filed after the. county board
Of review ordered a blanket in
crease of 20 per cent on lands and
improvements within the city.
Should any inequality in the assess
ment be found next year the tax
board will order a reassessment.
Brown said.
