This document discusses the historical background of land transportation from prehistoric times to the early development of airplanes. It describes how early nomadic groups relied on manpower, using carrying poles, back loads, sledges, and travois for transportation. Later, animal power was utilized, employing oxen, reindeer, dogs, donkeys, and llamas. The document then outlines some early attempts at wind power transportation, including Montgolfier balloons, Siemens' rocket plane, Lilienthal gliders, Santos Dumont's airship, and concludes with the Wright brothers' first successful airplane flight and Lindbergh's historic solo transatlantic flight.
