There are various ways of distinguishing an aircraft by its type. The essential differentiation is between those that are lighter than air and those that are heavier than air.

Lighter-than-air aircraft like inflatables, nonrigid carriers, and airships are intended to hold inside their design an adequate volume that, when loaded up with a gas lighter than air (hydrogen, heated air, or helium), uproots the encompassing surrounding air and floats, similarly as on water.

Heavier-than-aircraft include kites. These are usually a level-surfaced structure, frequently with a settling "tail," appended by a harness to a string that is held to set up on the ground. This aircraft should have a power source to give the push significant to acquire lift.

Aircraft that include non-military planes are called civil aircraft.  These include private as well as business planes and commercial passenger airliners.

Most early aircraft were made of wood and fabric construction.  Today, most planes are made of steel, titanium, aluminium, and numerous materials which comprise of composites which contain a wide range of materials, generally including carbon-fibre reinforced polymers, and the sky is the limit from there.

While the basic principles of an aircraft that the Wright brothers applied still pertain, there have been enormous changes over the years to how those principles are learnt and executed.  

COVID and the Rise of E-Commerce

The Covid-19 pandemic has completely changed the way a business operates.  E-commerce has drastically become the primary business model across the world since the outbreak of global pandemic.  The future generation is for sure to look back at 2020 as the year that remodeled E-commerce.

 

As strict lockdown measures were imposed, businesses shifted from traditional to digital.  This surged online buying, thus providing customers with access to essentials from the convenience and safety of their homes, thanks to contact restrictions and other confinement processes.  This increased the rise of E-commerce share of global retail trade from 14 percent in 2019 to 17 percent in 2020 after the outburst of covid-19.

 

Statistics clearly show that the Covid-19 pandemic has accelerated the shift from physical stores to digital shopping by roughly 5 years.  Physical stores have seen a significant decline during this period.  The data shows that after the Covid-19 outbreak, the sales of departmental stores decreased to 25% and online sales increased by 75%.  It is also indicated that physical stores are expected to see a decline for the next 5 years. Meanwhile, E-commerce is projected to grow by 20% more in the next 5 years.

 

The acceleration of E-commerce throughout the globe after Covid-19 was hard to ignore, as consumers shopped online more, and brands were forced to rapidly change their strategies. Today, millennial consumers say they do not miss shopping in physical stores and would rather prefer online shopping.

 

Even business houses who have been in the traditional modes until now have started to realize that the time has arrived to GO DIGITAL.
