On board is a reference to the planking of sailing ships which were made of wooden boards. Surprised there is no mention of that as it is a naval term.

Preposition: aboard[edit]

"the long hours onboard an aircraft on the way to some diplomatic engagement abroad" (Molly Worthen). --Backinstadiums (talk) 15:39, 7 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
