  • A decade later before the 1920's , airplanes were used for World War I
  • Planes were used to seek enemies at a far distance, and to attack by dropping bombs.
  • One of the worst life expectancy rate for a pilot in World War I was 69 hours.


   In the  early 1920's air travel really started to take off.  
  • After world war one other companies started to build more airplanes but this time not just for war but for traveling and faster cargo transportation 
  • Pilot's that survived the war demonstrated their flying skills at carnivals, aircraft became an entertainment in America.
  • At first,  airplanes could only carry small weights so they were mostly used as a mail service.
  • People that did use airplanes for travel were mostly the wealthy because they were able to afford it. 
  • Aircraft manufacturers made a new, bigger and better model every year , which eventually lead to the creation of airplane commercial use allowing middle class people to travel on a plane
  • Most of the early airports were open fields with a small waiting room.
   The greatest advancements in aviation were made in the 1920's. Many of the advancements are still used today as commercial airlines, and a main source of transporting goods.
