This paper presents the development of agricultural aviation in the years 1950 to 1990 and the possibilities for using aeroplanes and helicopters in different branches of the national economy. The advantages and limitations of the use of this technique and the possibilities for applying agricultural aeroplanes and helicopters in Europe and other continents are discussed. The establishment of a World Aviation Help Service (WAHS) under UN auspices is suggested in conclusion.
