The history of the development of Soviet civil aviation has paralleled the burgeoning of Soviet power and influence in the 20th century. The influence of aircraft on transportation and national unity is naturally emphasized, while such valuable contributions as the transport of the sick by air, construction of buildings using helicopters, and the aerial surveying and extermination of insect pests are discussed as well. Many types of Soviet aircraft are described and compared as to size, range and other characteristics. (Author)
