Aerodyne
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An aerodyne is a heavier-than-air aircraft which derives lift from motion, as opposed to an aerostat which uses buoyancy (such as a balloon) to fly. The concept includes fixed-wing aircraft, helicopters, autogyros, and lifting bodies.
In addition, the name may refer to:
- K-100 Aerodyne – a Kenworth truck.
- Aerodyne dropship – a fictional vehicle in the BattleTech game.
- The Aerodyne – a 1986 short film directed by Stan Brakhage.
