Digimon virtual pet
In the Bandai release of the Digimon virtual pet in 1997, Airdramon was one of the evolved forms of Betamon. To get Airdramon, there was an odd reqirement. The Betamon the person was raising had to be treated medium-poorly, and be woken up during the night at least 9 times. However, in the end this was worth it, because Airdramon is the strongest Champion level digimon possible to get. If treated perfectly, with a win streak over 40% (with 15+ battles) Airdramon could evolve into the ultimate level MetalGreymon.

Digimon Adventure
An Airdramon was briefly seen on TV when Digimon started to appear in the Real World before the DigiDestined fought the Dark Masters.

Digimon 02
Squadrons of Airdramon are kept under the control of the Digimon Emperor by means of his Dark Rings. In the creation of Kimeramon, the data of Airdramon's wings was used. Also an Airdramon appeared at the Dark Ocean but it was easily defeated by Angewomon (this Airdamon was a darker color than the others and was the only one to truly have a speaking role as he called out his attacks). Another Airdramon belonged to an American DigiDestined named Tatum. That Airdramon, among multiple Airdramon and many other Digimon, was seen during the final battle against MaloMyotismon.

Digimon Tamers
An Airdramon was among the many Digimon seen through the rip in the sky during Vikaralamon's rampage.

Digimon Frontier

 * Voiced by Tom Fahn and Dan Lorge.

Five Airdramon were among the Digimon (Zanbamon, Gryphonmon, Pteramon and GranKuwagamon) who attempted to stop the Royal Knights from scanning the Autumn Leaf Fair. Three of them were killed easily by Dynasmon and when Crusadermon was about to kill the remaining two, EmperorGreymon and MagnaGarurumon intervened. What happened to those two Airdramon after that was not revealed.

Digimon Savers
When looking for Tohma H. Norstein and Gaomon (who were pursuing Drimogemon) in the Digital World, Masaru Daimon and Agumon saw 3 Airdramon flying over them.

V-Tamer
An Airdramon was with Neo Saiba during the invasion upon LordHolyAngemon's castle where it destroyed a Kuwagamon.

Digimon World
When the entrance to Mt.Infinity is opened an brainwashed Airdramon attacks, when he is defeated he sleeps in Jijimon's house until you defeat Machinedramon where he rescues you. He then joines the city as a fortune teller.

Airdramon evolves from Gotsumon. However, unlike it's appearances in other media, it cannot evolve in this game through conventional methods.
