An airplane or aeroplane (informally plane) is a powered, fixed-wing aircraft that is propelled forward by thrust from a jet engine, propeller or rocket engine. Airplanes come in a variety of sizes, shapes, and wing configurations. The broad spectrum of uses for airplanes includes recreation, transportation of goods and people, military, and research. Worldwide, commercial aviation transports more than four billion passengers annually on airliners[1] and transports more than 200 billion tonne-kilometers[2] of cargo annually, which is less than 1% of the world's cargo movement.[3] Most airplanes are flown by a pilot on board the aircraft, but some are designed to be remotely or computer-controlled such as drones.
The Wright brothers invented and flew the first airplane in 1903, recognized as "the first sustained and controlled heavier-than-air powered flight".[4] They built on the works of George Cayley dating from 1799, when he set forth the concept of the modern airplane (and later built and flew models and successful passenger-carrying gliders).[5] Between 1867 and 1896, the German pioneer of human aviation Otto Lilienthal also studied heavier-than-air flight. Following its limited use in World War I, aircraft technology continued to develop. Airplanes had a presence in all the major battles of World War II. The first jet aircraft was the German Heinkel He 178 in 1939. The first jet airliner, the de Havilland Comet, was introduced in 1952. The Boeing 707, the first widely successful commercial jet, was in commercial service for more than 50 years, from 1958 to at least 2013.

Experience
Years of experience: 4. Registered at ProZ.com: Jun 2020.
I am a retired Mechanical Engineer with over 20
years of experience in the Aeronautic Industry in Brazil and Argentina. Throughout
the years, I have had the opportunity to do business with and travel to many countries
such as USA, France, Portugal, Spain, Germany and Argentina. All this time
abroad and interaction brought me a large expertise in translation. I used to
translate brochures and booklets from English to Brazilian Portuguese, such as
Technical Manuals, Standardizations, Aeronautic Rules, Procedures to use
Software for design and production (CAD-CAM), Outsource contracts, Safety
Procedures and many chapters of Technology Books.
Much
of the materials I translated is still in use in current days at Embraer –
Empresa Brasileira de Aeronautica S. A. and at FadeA – Fabrica de Aviones de
Argentina.
Nowadays,
as I am retired, I have spare time and energy to continue working and pursue a
career as a Translator. For this job, I am considering about 3 or 4 hours per
day as a freelancer, from home. I will use the Cat Tools like SDL Trados, Memo
Q, Matecat, OmegaT, etc.
