      It suffers from the C-Before-E In English problem; looks like it should rhyme with 'traces'.

      yeah, you'd have to spell the final term drakestrian if you wanted to communicate pronunciation to an English speaker

      yeah, the spelling divergence gives that tingly worldbuilding feeling of having traced out some linguistic drift

      I feel a K implies it's coming from Greek rather than Latin, but I'm biased by a prof with opinions.

      I'm bringing @CarrieCuinn over to this part of my query. She's suggested "dracoviatrian" because of the flight aspect of dragons.

      Now to play with linguistic drift to make it pronounceable... dracoviation?

      and dracoviator if we're going for the Regency vibe one is forced to suspect may be intended, that's perfect

          It's actually 1950s, but we can figure that term would have solidified its spelling in the Regency.

          Hm. 'aviator' is from 'avis', no? So replacing the 'a' with part of 'dracon' is odd.

          elsewhere in the thread it was revealed that it's a parallel construction using draco- and viator
