Transport becomes more important every day . The general trend is to reduce costs and time , either for people or for goods . Hence, efficient transport only have options in a market increasingly competitive . Many goods do not belong in certain markets because transportation costs are too high, slow or unreliable .
No transport no trade possible, and the same industry and transport trade weigh dramatically in the economic development of the countries. Trade is the key instrument of human relationships and the only known way to give life to facilitate production and distribution and consumption.

3. TRANSPORT TRANSPORTATION
The transport concept is used to describe the act and consequence of moving something from one place to another. It also allows name those gadgets or vehicles used for this purpose, leading individuals or goods from a certain site to another.
The operator is part of logistics, which is the set of means and methods to organize a service or a business.

HISTORY
In the early twentieth century there were many who were experimenting with aircraft engines of various types, Ader Giffard came to try a steam powered airplane whose great weight prevented him from staying in the air. In 1903 , the brothers Wilbur and Orville Wright , bicycle manufacturers , will be the first device to run a successful heavier than air, the combustion engine airplane remained almost a minute in flight traveling 300 meters . Quickly perfected airplanes are used during the 1st World War as the ultimate weapon of combat . In one or two passengers , the most notable variations are in the number of pairs of wings , mono , bi or triptans , emerge as vehicles for tours and aerobatics. In Charles Lindbergh in his Spirit of St. Louis airplane , made ​​the first transatlantic flight , non-stop, solo , along the route New York - Paris in 33 hours 30 minutes facilitating commercial intercontinental flights .

The lack of appropriate tracks staged landing at Clipper seaplanes , pioneers in the global transportation of passengers and cargo. The 2nd World War to give a big boost to the development of aviation cargo aircraft , passenger and fighter , faster and safer and different devices as the helicopter lands and takes off vertically ( Focke , Sikorsky ) . Commercial aviation is reinforced after the war and large aircraft propellers 1-4 Continental Douglas ( DC ) fill an entire era , being replaced by jet or turbine aircraft originally manufactured by Boeing , the 707 will be the first airliner in this series , the most popular was the 727.
The rapid development of air transport compared to terrestrial and aquatic leads to spatial navigation . The Russians will be the first to put a human being into space, in 1957 a dog named Laika will be the first astronaut known . The first man in space was the American Alan Shepard , and the first to orbit the Earth Russian Yuri Gagarin, followed by John Glenn , American , then American astronauts Armstrong , Collins and Aldrin , in 1969 and aboard the Apollo 11 , will be the first to reach the moon.

6. TRANSPORT AVIATION HISTORY IN COLOMBIA
The Colombian aviation history had its genesis in 1843 when the Argentine Jose Maria Florez balloon flew over the city of Popayan today, but the constitution of the Colombian Air Navigation Company in September 1919 marks the birth of the activity in this country.
Colombia, in the field of aviation, has been a pioneer in the transportation of passengers and cargo, since the appearance in 1919 of the first commercial air transport company, called SCADTA. That company now a Avianca, became a tool of leverage economic and social development of the country. Since then he has been continuing government efforts to expand the levels of growth of the aviation industry in Colombia and are millionaires investments have been implemented in the airport network consists of 73 airfields, located at strategic sites in the national territory.

7. TRANSPORT ADVANTAGES OF AIR TRANSPORT
-Speed: It is a machine with a very high speed
-Competitiveness: Provides reduced costs, bulk cargoes.
-Documentation: Very simple and completely normalized.
-Coverage: Has great coverage in different countries when carrying cargo.
DISADVANTAGES OF AIR
-Capacity: The aircraft is not able to compete with other transport volume and weight ratio of
-Bulk cargoes: Not the best means of transport liquids, mineral oil and others
Low-unit value products: raw materials, can not absorb the higher cost of freight
-Articles dangerous: dangerous items are restricted on airplanes for safety
