I have references to 'ground' and 'air' in multiple files. It is usually used in this context, but not always.

Should I be using string constants to represent 'ground' and 'air' so if I ever change their literal, I just update it in one place? e.g.
> NSString * const TransportGround = @"ground";
> NSString * const TransportAir = @"air";
I then decide I want to rename 'ground' to be 'wheels', then I would only update the above string constant.
