      The distinction isn’t relevant to the point being made. Although the article title says “jets”, the body of the article uses the more generic “aircraft” interchangeably with “jet.”

      I’d expect this is applicable to helicopters as well, though they have a different usage.

      Edit: I looked it up and apparently helicopters are not included. The distinguishing feature is “fixed wing” aircraft.

        It was a quote from the article. Your complaint is with Boomerang, not the guy quoting them
