Pneumonia is a respiratory condition in which there is infection of the lung. Upper respiratory tract infections are the illnesses caused by an acute infection which involves the upper respiratory tract: nose, sinuses, pharynx or larynx. An example would be the common cold.
Well, it can be caused by microorganisms or by unknown causes. What I know is that it's an inflammatory condition of the lungs - in the Alveoli. Some causes are infection, bacteria, viruses or physical injury to the lungs.
I'm not quite sure if it is related to airborne, I hope this information might help....
No. Pneumonia is in your lower lungs affecting the bronchioles and aveoli. Upper respiratory infections mainly affect the sinuses, nose, throat, larynges, and upper large bronchi.
Like most of the lung infections the pneumonia is usually air borne infection.

Colds make the upper respiratory system less resistant to bacterial infection. Secondary bacterial infection may lead to middle ear infection, bronchitis, pneumonia, sinus infection, or strep throat.
Sinus infection is a common inflammatory disease that can follow an upper respiratory streptococcal infection. Meningitis is also possible following that type of infection.
Sinuses are apart of your upper respitory tract, but the upper respitory tract also includes the nasal cavity, the pharynx and the larynx. A sinus infection is just an infection in your paranasal sinuses.
