Category and class of aircraft...
aircraft includes all types of flying machines.

AIRPLANE does not include helicopters, see FAR Part 1

ASEL ASES AMEL AMES the A means category airplane and the
rest is the class
AMEL B747 includes the type.

Rotorcraft is the category and helicopter is the class.
