'aerodromics' originates from Greek, specifically the word 'aerodromos,' where 'aero-' meant 'air' and 'dromos' meant 'course or race.'

'aerodromos' transformed into the English word 'aerodrome,' and eventually became the modern English word 'aerodromics.'

Initially, it meant 'a place for air races,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'the science of airport design and operation.'
