The story of Ailerons begins in 2009, when I was developing my graduation project for college. The typography was part of a concept visual identity, inspired by aircraft models from the 40s, which made intense use of condensed letters.
The idea was to use the curves that refer to aircraft ailerons to build the letter's identity. The name of the font came up from this concept. The unusual space between letters, present since the first version, indicates its best use.

Hi Adilson,
I hope you’re well.
I’m getting in touch to ask about the licensing terms for your typeface Ailerons. I’m currently working on a personal illustrated book that I’ll be publishing in collaboration with a small publisher. It’s a self-funded project, and I’d love to use your font in the editorial layout.
Could you please let me know if this use is allowed under your current license, or if a specific license would be required? And in that case, what would be the cost?
Thanks so much in advance — I really appreciate your time, and I love your work!
Best,
Nuria Balaguer
