Air Transportation

NOTE: THIS ARTICLE IS UNDER EDITING. PLEASE WAIT TO BE FINISHED. ESTIMATED FINISH DATE: FEBRUARY 10TH 2014

Air transportation is used in some areas. Like any vehicle transportation system, it requires 3 elements: rezz zones (usually airports), routes (air paths) and vehicles (airplanes, helicopters, space ships, balloons). Another way of air transportation is by flying, with or without wings. Air transportation is most often used in the large Linden-owned continents (mainland continents). On private-owned land, it is usually not used, since distances are not big.

Rezz zones (airports)

For small vehicles like a balloon or a helicopter, a rezz zone can be small: a road, rail or boat rezz zone is large enough. Many residents can rezz these vehicles at their own home. The following list includes all airports 'Second Life Geography' team found on the grid. Some of them are Protected Land, while some are private land, with a friendly owner that allows you to rezz a plane.
