What was the goal of the Air Commerce Act?

  1. To increase the number of airlines.

  2. To certify aircraft and airmen; To draft and implement the air traffic rules.

  3. To promote private investment in the airline industry.

  4. To establish a global airline network.

The correct answer is: To certify aircraft and airmen; To draft and implement the air traffic rules.

The Air Commerce Act, also known as the Civil Aeronautics Act of 1926, aimed to improve safety and regulation in the growing aviation industry. Option A is incorrect because the act did not specifically aim to increase the number of airlines, but rather focus on regulation and safety measures. Option C is incorrect because the act did not directly promote private investment, but rather focused on government regulation and oversight. Option D is incorrect because the act was specific to the United States and did not have global implications. Therefore, option B is the most accurate answer as it reflects the goals of the Air Commerce Act in terms of aircraft and airmen certification and air traffic rules implementation.
