Are you just looking for more terms, or are you also looking for additional country names that use the terms you already have listed? For example, all Spanish speaking countries will use "Correo Aereo" -- that's every country in South and Central America except Brazil and the Guiana's.
Thought I'd show, rather than list. Enjoy.

Good stuff, Roy! Thank you very much.
Yes. I am curious about the Spanish speaking countries. I see both with, and without the 's'.
'Correo Aereo' or 'Correos Aereos'
I am trying to determine if the individual countries use only one of the specific forms, or if a country could use either of the forms. I would be interested to see some example of a country which uses both forms.

"Correos Aereos" is actually the plural of "Correo Aereo", and a quick browse through my site turned up an example on the second Mexican cover below (on the stamp).
There are innumerably more examples from almost any country you can name on my website. (link at the left under my dog Lacey's picture.

So.... I added another item to my worldwide airmail collection today, and it was also a new airmail term.
My Romanian is a little rusty, but the stamp itself was affixed to mail that was exempt from postage (Scutit de Taxa Postala). The added overprint 'Prin Avion' (meaning "by Air") indicates that the item to which it is affixed is going by air and is exempt from postage.
These overprints were made on the 1 December 1947 King Michael Fund issue, and come in a couple of varieties:
- with black or red overprint.
- on white or grayish paper.
- perforated 13.5 or imperforate.
