Sources
- found: Am. heritage dict. (copter: informal, a helicopter)
- found: Web. 3 (airplane: a fixed-wing aircraft heavier than air that is driven by a screw propeller or a high velocity jet and supported by the dynamic reaction of the air against its wings; helicopter: an aircraft whose support is the air is derived chiefly from the aerodynamic forces acting on one or more roters turning about substantially vertical axes)
- found: Comments concerning NPRM 49' CFR 830 from Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation web site, Jan. 24, 2006 (the analogy that NTSB draws is not correct: helicopters are not airplanes, and have distinct and obvious differences)
