Aircraft/aircrafts

No. Aircrafts with an 's' is wrong.

"The word aircraft is a countable noun, but with the same plural form as singular; hence "one aircraft", "two aircraft", etc. However, it is becoming more and more common to hear the incorrect usage "aircrafts" among both non-native speakers of English and those who work in the aviation industry" from Wiftionary (http:

What if they are different types of aircraft? Shouldn't it then be plural, just as one would write "peoples" to signify there are groups of people being counted?

The word People indicates more than one. There was lots of people at the concert. One, would then be a person or individual..There is a person or individual at the front door.

Nope. Any time that you see "aircrafts" in print means that the author has zero expertise concerning the topic because nobody with any level of expertise would ever embarrass themselves by using a word that doesn't exist.

No. And when it's a possessive, it's "aircraft's". There are no aircrafts.
