Air transportation is a method of travel used to enable people to travel long distances quickly and comfortably. The history of air transportation is based on people’s invention of airplanes and widespread use of these vehicles.
First Flight
The history of air transportation dates back to 1783. This year, two French brothers, Joseph and Jacques Montgolfier, flew their first flying balloons. These balloons laid the foundations of air transportation. However, it took much more time to invent the first airplanes than to fly balloons.
In 1903, Wilbur and Orville Wright, two American brothers, flew their first plane. These planes were the first aircraft invented by the Wright brothers and called the “Wright Flyer”. While this aircraft could only fly a distance of 120 meters, its speed was only 40 mph.

In 1911, French aircraft designer Louis Bleriot pioneered the real expansion of air travel by flying the Channel between England and France. This event led to the real expansion of the airline and air transportation to become an industry.
In 1927, Charles Lindbergh flew solo across the Atlantic Ocean between New York and Paris for the first time, making air travel truly popular. This event caused air transportation to become an indispensable method of travel for many people.
Modern Aviation
In recent years, air transport continues to develop rapidly. Today, while airplanes can fly very quickly and comfortably, they are also produced with environmentally friendly designs. Airplanes consume less fuel, emit less emissions and produce less noise. Technological developments in air transportation make travels more comfortable, faster and safer. For example, airplanes now offer features such as internet access, screens and games.
In addition, air transportation allows us to travel quickly and easily between many points in the world. This plays an important role for trade, tourism and other sectors. Air transport brings the relations and cultures between the countries of the world closer to each other.
As a result, air transport is an important mode of travel used to enable people to travel long distances quickly and comfortably. Today, air transportation continues to develop rapidly and makes people’s lives easier.
