International Air Freight
The first cargo flight took place on the 7 November 1910 in the USA, between Dayton
and Columbus, Ohio carrying a package of 200 pounds of silk for the opening of a
store, covering a distance of 105 Km in 57 minutes. It was the first “cargo only”
flight solely for the transport of goods; the first flight commissioned by a client,
and the first example of multimodal air transport, since the pieces of silk were
transported by car from Columbus aerodrome to the store. The world's first official
airmail flight took place on 18 February 1911, at a large exhibition in the United
Provinces of Agra and Oudh, British India, carrying 6,500 letters a distance of
13 km, from Allahabad to Naini.
It has been a long 100 + years of trade, which has grown phenomenally in the west,
coming a full circle, now is the time for India to bask in the glory of its past.
