Embracing the world - civil aviation post 1945

In the years since 1945, air travel has expanded tremendously. There are now few places in the world which cannot be reach by commercial aircraft. Almost every independent state, however small, has its own airline. Indeed, the main reason why airlines are often called flag carriers is that they are high profile ambassadors for their countries. The pace of air travel has also grown. Passengers being handled by New York's three major airports, JFK, Newark, and La Guardia, are over 80 million each year.
