Class B Tour - Aeropostale ligne
Tour Description
1927 Brazilian-based French businessman named Marcel Bouilloux-Lafont founded the Compagnie générale aéropostale, better known by the shorter name Aéropostale, envisioning an air route connecting France to the French colonies in Africa and South America. The company's activities were to specialise in, but were by no means restricted to, airborne postal services.
In November 1927 regular flights between Rio de Janeiro and Natal were started.[1] Expansion then continued to Paraguay and in July 1929 a regularly scheduled route across the Andes Mountains to Santiago, Chile, was started, later extending down to Tierra del Fuego on the southern part of Chile. The company ran until 1932 but the route became one of the pioneering air routes in early commercial aviation.
Any aircraft up to Class B available for this tour including the props if you feel like reliving the spirt of the historical flights. Please note not all the historic destination are featured in the flight due to lack of real work airfields.
