This looks like a cross between a disambiguation page, a series of dictionary definitions and a stub. -- Theo (Talk) 15:22, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC)
This page needs more information to be usable since aeronautics is a fairly broad category. It probably should be a stub. Phoenixflight 18:45, 14 November 2005 (UTC)
I can't help but wonder how much this page will be similar to the one that already exists on aviation history to the point where I have to wonder just how much useful information will be found independently on this page beyond a definition for aeronautics. Any suggestions? Andromeda321 19:34, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
Just what I was thinking - I wrote up to Caley's glider before I noticed the Aviation History article. Right now I'm leaning towards a See Aviation History link myself. Feezo 01:15, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
There are some high quality images that sould be used on this page as it expands, here are some for easy picking :D

I removed the following text:
But long before that, in 852, Abbas Ibn Firnas jumped from the minaret of the Mezquita mosque in Córdoba using a huge wing-like cloak to break his fall, which he survived with minor injuries. This was the first example of an early parachute. Ibn Firnas recognized that aviation was a difficult task and asked himself in a personal ledger:
"What man-made machine will ever achieve the complete perfection of even the goose's wing?"[5]
In 875, at age of 65 years, Ibn Firnas made the earliest attempt at flight using a rudimentary glider and launched from the Mount of the Bride (Jabal al-'arus) in the Rusafa Area, near Córdoba, Spain. However, it ended in a crash and he injured his back. This failure left critics saying he hadn't taken proper account of the way birds land and that he had provided neither a tail, nor a means for landing.[6][5]
Ibn Firnas died twelve years later in 887, at the age of 77 years old.
There were no references included, and some of the information is not pertaining to this article (death, age at death) and incorrect information (first example of an early parachute). Since I can't verify the source, I removed the information, but include it here in the event that adequate sources are provided. -- Born2flie ( talk) 04:39, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

Aeronautics →
Aeronautical science – There is no single definition of aeronautics. Some regard it as the science of flight with aviation as the art or practice. Others regard it as equivalent to aviation, yet others embrace astronautics and spaceflight, and so on. The British Royal Aeronautical Society charter takes one of the most general approaches, saying that, "The objects and purposes [of the Society] are the general advancement of aeronautical Art, Science and Engineering and for promoting that species of knowledge which distinguishes the profession of Aeronautics (which expression includes Astronautics)."

I understand that aviation medicine (AM) is a field of medicine. But would it not also fall under the field of aeronautics? I’m not sure what the general consensus is IRL, and I’m about to do some research on the subject, but I feel that it may be worth at least mentioning it here?
