When most people think of jobs in transportation, the first ones that come to mind are pilots, flight attendants or truck drivers. While these jobs make up the majority of the transportation industry, there is more to the sector than meets than eye.

Transportation is broken down into two fields: air transportation, and truck transportation and warehousing. Air transportation provided 487,000 wage and salary jobs in 2006, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). While flight crews are the most visible occupations in this field, two-thirds of employees in this field work in ground occupations.
