Why would anyone post this question in a forum? This takes literally 0,2 seconds on Google.

For transparency: I'm a community mentor at the BATC discord. However, I do not get paid for it in any way.

What about "Airplanes" or "Aeroplanes".... whats that about?

A flock of aircraft perhaps?
The plural of raft is rafts so logically the plural of aircraft should be aircrafts. English is not a logical language but perhaps that's why it is so interesting.

The plural of craft is crafts, but the plural of aircraft is aircraft... I envy no one who learns English as an adult.

 

And there are many native English speakers who still can't speak the language, like, innit!

Of more concern to me are people who learned English from day zero and still write or say "aircrafts".

Or even worse ‘aircraftz’

There's the Queens English, which uses aeroplane, and American English, which uses airplane.

It's like color and colour, or aluminum and aluminium.

Take-offs are optional, landings are mandatory.
The only time you have too much fuel is when you're on fire.
To make a small fortune in aviation you must start with a large fortune.

There's nothing less important than the runway behind you and the altitude above you.
It's better to be on the ground wishing you were in the air, than in the air wishing you were on the ground.
