airplane
An airplane is a heavier-than-air, fixed-wing aircraft--in contrast to lighter-than-air aircraft such as hot air balloons and blimps, or rotary-wing aircraft such as helicopters and quadcopter drones.
Airplanes are produced in a wide variety of shapes and sizes, from biplanes to commercial jet airliners, and may feature specialized adaptations such as seaplanes for landing on water.
