ER SRBI JA AIR SERBIA SREĆAN 93. ROĐENDAN HAPPY 93RD BIRTHDAY Er Srbija, kao naslednica tradicije prve nacionalne avio-kompanije Aeroput , obeležila je prošlog meseca 93 godine od svog osnivanja 17. juna 1927. godine / Last month saw Air Serbia, as the successor company of Aeroput, the country’s first national airline, mark 93 years since it was founded on 17th June 1927. DRUŠTVO ZA VAZDUŠNI SAOBRAĆAJ AD AEROPUT bilo je prvo jugoslovensko akcionarsko preduzeće za civilni vazdušni saobraćaj, koje je kasnije preraslo u Jugoslovenski aerotransport , a potom u Er Srbiju. Prvi direktor Aeroputa, ujedno i najzaslužnija osoba za njegovo osnivanje uprkos brojnim izazovima, bio je Tadija Sondermajer, elitni srpski vojni pilot i aero-inženjer. Prvi zvanični let obavljen je 15. februara 1928. godine na relaciji Beograd–Zagreb, a avioni Aeroputa su na vrhuncu razvoja kompanije leteli na sve četiri strane sveta – na sever do Budimpešte, Brna i Praga, na zapad do Venecije i Milana, na jug do Tirane i na istok do Bukurešta i Sofije. U floti Aeroputa nalazile su se i letelice koje su spadale u najvišu kategoriju putničkih aviona tog vremena. – Izazovan period tokom kojeg obeležavamo ovaj veliki i poseban jubilej dodatno ukazuje na značaj negovanja tradicije. Samo na jakim temeljima duge i bogate istorije mogli smo izgraditi snažnu kompaniju koja je u stanju da se izdigne iznad prepreka i ponosno uzleti nakon neplaniranog prizemljenja. Po ugledu na našeg prethodnika Aeroput , koji je od samog osnivanja spadao u najuglednije avio-kompanije u Evropi, trudićemo se da i u ovim neizvesnim vremenima zadržimo i opravdamo ulogu regionalnog lidera u avio-industriji – izjavio je Dankan Nejsmit, generalni direktor Er Srbije. Kao naslednica Aeroputa, Er Srbija se nalazi na osmom mestu liste najstarijih avio-kompanija na svetu koje i dalje posluju. AIR TRANSPORT COMPANY AEROPUT JSCWAS Yugoslavia’s first joint-stock company in the civil aviation sector, which was later transformed into Jugoslovenski Aerotransport, JAT, and then became Air Serbia. The first director of Aeroput, and also the person most responsible for founding the company despite numerous challenges, was Tadija Sondermajer, an elite Serbian army pilot, pioneering aviator and aeronautical engineer. The airline’s first official flight was conducted on 15th February 1928, between Belgrade and Zagreb, and at the peak of Aeroput’s development its aircraft flew in all directions – north to Budapest, Brno and Prague, west to Venice and Milan, south to Tirana and east to Bucharest and Sofia. The Aeroput fleet included passenger aircraft that represented the highest category at the time. “The challenging period during which we are marking this major and special milestone additionally highlights the importance of nurturing tradition. Only on the strong foundations of a long and rich history could we have built a strong company able to overcome obstacles and proudly take off after an unplanned landing. Inspired by our predecessor Aeroput, which was counted among the most reputable companies in Europe since its founding, we will strive to retain and justify the role of regional leader in the aviation industry even during these uncertain times,” stated Air Serbia CEO Duncan Naysmith. As a direct successor to Aeroput, Air Serbia represents the world’s eighth oldest airline that is still operating.
