How much cargo actually goes by air? Last I knew boats (ships) were the vast, vast majority of cargo transport, followed by trains, then trucks, with planes coming a distant last.
- samatman 4y agoThis says nothing about the importance of the cargo which is transported by plane. Given the much higher expense, we would expect this cargo to be more important, not less. An extreme example would be organs.
- b3morales 4y agoSure, but I can't agree that our civilization would collapse, or even be at serious risk, if tomorrow airfoils suddenly no longer functioned.
