They are made to follow a certain route, which is the same as what is experienced on the interstate highway system. The paths they follow were selected more than 50 years ago and navigation networks were placed along the path. The continuous advance in technology shows…

into the United States at a relatively slow pace furthermore; there was minor growth from the Wright Brothers first flight in 1903 to mid-1925. The years between World War I and World War II experienced great advances in aviation in the types of aircraft and the materials used to build them. When World War I concluded, the United States had a surplus of military airplanes and pilots who were eager to demonstrate…
