Elytrapods

This article includes lots of fictional writing.

Elytrapods are a type of compact, light aircraft usually used by one person. What makes an elytrapod what it is, it needs an elytra in its design, natural or artificial. Earlier elytrapods required specialised runway-type infrastructure, but newer aircraft may not require that anymore.

Elytraports

Elytraports are designated landing spots used by elytrapods. Even though elytrapods can use normal airport infrastructure specialized elytraports are still constructed. Airport repurposing is often seen in practice for abandoned or disused airfields and repurposed airfields usually retain a huge chunk of original design and construction.
