The development of the geography of air transport and its evolution from transportation science and analysis of the passenger flows in the Federal Republic of Germany is reviewed. Passenger traffic through airports of origin and destination for the years 1971 and 1977 was calculated. The passenger/population ratios of the rural districts are compared with socioeconomic indicators of the same administrative units by correlation and regression analysis. The mapping of the residuals from the multiple regression shows a strong distance decay influence on the intensity of air traffic. The distribution of the air passengers at the different airports by origin and the number of regional air passengers at the airport for 1971 and 1977 are shown. The catchment areas of airports are the dynamic areal structures dependent on various factors. The evolution of traffic patterns reflects the different areal definitions of the catchment areas of airports.
