Abstract

For the English abstract and full text of the article please see the attached PDF-File (English version follows Russian version). ABSTRACT Air transport arose due to man’s persistent desire to fly. It evolved from eccentricity, through experiments to regular communication between the most distant corners of the planet. Passenger air travel is a little more than 100 years old. Aeroflot, the legendary company that connects cities and villages, continents and countries, stands at the origins of civil aviation in Russia. The biography of Aeroflot is the history of development of domestic aircraft construction, development of once dangerous and risky routes, rapid technical progress and competition with the largest aviation companies in the world. The author describes some curious facts from the history of Aeroflot company. Keywords: air transport, civil aviation, history, Aeroflot, transport market, corporate culture.
