List of aircraft

This list of aircraft is sorted alphabetically, beginning with the name of the manufacturer (or, in certain cases, designer). It is an inclusive list rather than an exclusive one, meaning that where an aircraft is known under multiple names, designations, or manufacturers, each of these is listed. Note also that this list should not be considered complete and it is constantly being updated with more aircraft types.

This list does not generally include variants or subtypes of the aircraft themselves (although there is considerable difference among various manufacturers and designation systems as to what constitutes a new aircraft as opposed to a variant of an existing type).

The size of the list has required it to be broken into:

pre 1914 • 0-A • B • C • D • E • F • G • H • I • J • K • L • M • N • O • P • Q • R • S • T • U-Z • gliders  • HPA  • List of UAV's  • Engines
