Aviation

Aviation refers to the design, development, production, operation, and use of aircraft, particularly heavier-than-air aircraft like airplanes and helicopters. It encompasses various aspects including aerodynamics, propulsion, avionics, navigation, and air traffic control. The field of aviation is divided into two main categories: civil aviation, which involves non-military and commercial air travel, and military aviation, which focuses on the use of aircraft for defense and combat purposes. Aviation also includes aspects related to airport operations, aircraft maintenance, and aviation safety regulations, playing a crucial role in global transportation and logistics.
