dc.description.abstract | International air transport, like many 20th Century marvels which are taken so much for granted today, broke out from its cocoon, so to speak, shortly after the end of World War II (WW II), took wing, and soared. Theretofore, its growth had been retarded by fear of flying, by restrictive policies in granting civil air rights based upon narrow views about the sovereignty of nations over their air space and by the inevitable "bugs" that plague the early phases of most innovative technologies. his paper will undertake to trace the high points in that post-WW II metamorphosis. | en_US |
