2. Nowadays, there are many means of transport to travel around the world such as train, ship ,car , airplane, ect . Almost all people choose airplane. But in fact, it has both advantages and disadvantages . First of all, I like to emphosize the fact that I love travelling by plane. In my opinion is the fastest and safest way to travel. When you want to travel long distances ,the plane is the ideal means of transport . Moreover , you will have the chance to admire some of the most beautiful momenths .

3. Advantages 1. High Speed: It is the fast speed means of transport. Passengers and goods can be transported easily from one place to the other. 2. Minimum Cost: Unlike railways and road transport, there is no need to spend money on the construction of any track or road, only airports have to be constructed. 3. Strategic Importance: An airway has great strategic importance. It can be used for internal and external security. 4. Easy transport of costly and light goods: It is quite convenient to send costly, light and perishable goods through air transport.

4. 5. Free from physical barriers: Air transport is free from physical barriers like river, mountains and valleys etc. 6. Useful for Agriculture : Air transport is useful for aerial spray on pests and insects which cause harm to crops. 7. Useful in natural calamities: During earth quake, flood, accidents and famine air transport is used for rescue operations.

5. Disadvantages 1. High Costs: Air transport is a costly service. Its operational costs are too high. Middle class and poor people can not affect its cash. 2. More Risks: Air transport is prone to accidents. A small mistake can be very dangerous for passengers. Hijacking of planes is easily possible. 3. Huge Investments: For creating aviation facilities, huge investments are required. The cost of aero planes, construction and maintenance of aerodromes and control mechanism needs a capital expenditure.
