Abstract
The world economical development at the turn of the century, which gave rise to the possibility of intensification of many economical activity aspects, has resulted in new challenges for civil aviation, in both passenger transport and cargo shipment. In order to satisfy the continually growing demand there is the necessity to enlarge the fleet and modernize the infrastructure being a precondition for the further development of the aviation sector. These processes have so far been inhibited both by financial limitations and construction barriers. The article makes a characterization of separate aircraft producers and the transportation vehicles produced by them. It also presents groups and types of aircrafts popular in different world regions
