2. INTRODUCTION
Aviation began in the 18th century with the
development of the hot air balloon, an apparatus
capable of atmospheric displacement through
buoyancy.
Some of the most significant advancements in
aviation technology came with the controlled gliding
flying of Otto Lilienthal in 1896
Then a large step in significance came with the
construction of the first powered airplane by the
Wright brothers in the early 1900s.
Since that time, aviation has been technologically
revolutionized by the introduction of the Jet which
permitted a major form of transport throughout the
world.
