from https://www.space.com/16657-worlds-first-commercial-airline-the-greatest-moments-in-flight.html On Jan. 1, 1914, the world’s first scheduled passenger airline service took off, operating between St. Petersburg and Tampa, Fla.

The first flight’s pilot was Tony Jannus, an experienced test pilot and barnstormer. The first paying passenger was Abaram C. Pheil, former mayor of St. Petersburg. Their 21-mile (34-kilometer) flight across the bay to Tampa took 23 minutes. They flew in a “flying boat” designed by Thomas Benoist (pronounced ben-wah), an aviation entrepreneur from […]

And it’s far from alone in the gallery of bizarrely shaped aircraft we’ve seen over the years. From balance-driven helicopters to inflatable airplanes, even a cursory tour through the history of aviation reveals some strange beasts that look little like the jet shape we’re all accustomed to. You have to wonder, why do aircraft designers keep building such far-out flying machines? We asked Dan Hagedorn, the curator of Seattle’s Museum of Flight, who […]

Most of the passenger planes in the world are not renowned for their speeds. When comparing them to jet fighters, these aircraft are like snails. However, this does not mean that these aircraft should be completely ignored in their power and speed. A majority of passenger planes range in between speeds of 500 to 700 miles per hour, some airlines have unique airliners that can go well beyond this speed range.

The largest commercial passenger plane in the world, the A380, is a double-decker behemoth with four engines, a wingspan of 262 feet, and a cabin that can hold more than 500 people.
