aerodrom

The term “aerodrom” refers to an area of land or a designated site specifically developed for the operation and handling of aircraft. It encompasses facilities for the takeoff, landing, and maintenance of airplanes and can include various structures such as runways, taxiways, hangars, and terminals. Aerodromes can serve different types of aviation activities, including commercial, military, and general aviation. They are critical components of the aviation infrastructure, facilitating air travel and transportation. The term is often used interchangeably with “airport,” though it can also refer to smaller airfields or landing strips that may not have all the amenities of a full-fledged airport.
