Best Answer

Very occasionally for light aircraft air is used, however it is almost exclusively nitrogen that is used. This is for a variety of reasons such as nitrogen does not support combustion and can assist in preventing a wheel fire when the aircraft lands (braking and high speed can produce dangerously high temperatures, especially if multiple sorties are flown). There are other benefits but effectively it is down to being the lowest cost gas that does not support combustion.)
