Aircraft
An aircraft is a machine that is able to fly by gaining support from the air. It counters the force of gravity by using either static lift or by using the dynamic lift of an airfoil, or in a few cases the downward thrust from jet engines. Common examples of aircraft include airplanes, helicopters, airships (including blimps), gliders, and hot air balloons.
Many books with this tag will be non-fiction about aircraft types and their history. Besides nonfiction books related to crafts and hobbies, there will also be fiction where the main setting is on an aircraft.
