Air transportation for ensuring coherence territories of the Russian Federation

The problem of definition of the optimum and balanced development of the air transportation for ensuring coherence of the territory of the Russian Federation (RF) is considered in the article. The analysis of domestic air-transport infrastructure and its comparison with foreign analogs is carried out. A transportation plays a crucial role in ensuring connectivity, which in turn has a significant impact on the economic development of the regions. New ambitious projects can be stopped due to absence of moving labor resources, energy capacity, materials, products, etc. from one point to another. Taking into account the peculiarity of the Russian Federation as a state with the largest territories in size and length the problem of connectivity is key for many business projects. Particular attention should be paid to ensuring the connectivity of the territories in the development of natural resources of Siberia, the Far East and the Arctic zone. When choosing a mode of transport, it is necessary to analyze the optimal costs in the construction of transport infrastructure and maintaining its serviceability. Given the large length of routes connecting the target regions and the European part of Russia, aviation is considered one of the optimal modes of transport. The article analyzes the domestic air transport infrastructure and compares it with foreign analogues. In addition to the traditional methods of air transportation the innovative types of air transport is considered. Conclusions about need of the state support of development both the modern aircraft equipment, and land transport infrastructure are drawn. The introduction of innovations in transport connectivity can significantly reduce the cost of disigning an aviation infrastructure and fundamentally reduce the duration of such projects. However, without both legislative and financial support from the state such innovative projects are not implemented. More active use of new types of the air transportation is offered.
