About

The Aerial View examines the airline networks, routes, and geopolitical forces that shape aviation. Here, aircraft, airspace, and borders are not just infrastructure—they are reflections of politics, economics, and strategic decisions. This blog focuses on:

Routes at the margins

Why some flights exist against the odds, from peripheral airports to subsidised services.

Network logic:

Why airlines structure their schedules, fleets, and alliances the way they do.

Geopolitics and Regulation:

How international agreements, sanctions, and national priorities influence what planes fly, where, and for whom.

Every article combines maps, data, and contextual analysis to explain not just what happens, but why it happens.

The Aerial View is independent, critical, and document-driven. My goal is to make aviation networks transparent and understandable—beyond PR and marketing spin.
