Trans Brasil Airlines BAC 1-11-500 PP-SDR ca.1976 for FS 5.x, 95 and 98 ============================================================================== Trans Brasil livery by: Rafael Zimmermann (the 2 N's right at the end of my surname are not an error :-) Original BAC 1-11 model by: Joel Branchu HISTORY: Trans Brasil is the 3rd largest Brazilian carrier. It was founded in 1963 as Sadia Airlines in the state of SC. The first planes were the Handley Page - Dart Herald which operated up to 1974. By 1970, the still named Sadia Airlines took delivery of their 1st jets, which were the BAC 1-11-500, co-named as "Super Jet 500" or populary known as the "Big Jet" or "Jatao" (in portuguese). The Super Jet 500 received the colorful livery of Trans Brasil in 1972, when Sadia Airlines became Trans Brasil Airlines. Up to 1974, some more BAC's were added to the fleet, and very well used until being retired in 1978, in favour of the brand new 727-100. NOTES: This file has copyrighted design and repaint.

Voar naqueles idos, tinha um tom de poesia, de magia. O amor com que o publico tratava e conhecia os avioes era imenso! E cada apresentacao de aeronave diferente era um show. Os Jatoes, os Electras (tao longevos e queridos nossos) emfim, tudo nosso. Portanto, quero deixar meu agradecimento, aos que fizeram o download deste aviao, e que curtem a historia antiga dos ceus, como eu. Um grande abraco para todos, Viva nossas linhas aereas!!! :-) Have a nice flight, and happy landings!!!!
