About

The word 航空 is formed by combining two meaningful characters: 航 (háng), which conveys the idea of navigating or sailing, and 空 (kōng), which means sky or air. Their conceptual fusion creates a new, compound idea, literally "sailing the sky", which directly and intuitively represents the modern concept of aviation.
