M.Comm. / The development of aviation in the 20th century presented a new mode of transportation within South Africa. Soon it was recognised that air transportation would play an important role in the development of South Africa, as the country was ideally suited to it due to favourable weather conditions and relatively long distances between larger community settlements. Air transportation also presented a new form of competition to an existing mode of transport - railways. The interest of the public in air transportation was soon recognised and control applied in various forms. These included legislation, regulations, conditions to licenses as well as contractual provisions of agreements. Two forms of control over air transport developed, namely: air navigational (or technical and operational) aspects; and economical / commercial aspects.
