VARIG
Viação Aérea Rio-Grandense (Rio Grandean Airways), acronym VARIG, Brazil’s first airline, was founded in 1927 by Otto Ernst Meyer-Labastille, a decorated German World War I aviator.
In 2005, suffering financial difficulties, Varig went into judicial restructuring and was split into two companies: Flex Linhas Aéreas (Flex), informally known as “old” Varig, the heir to the original airline, and VRG Linhas Aéreas “new” Varig.
In 2009, Gol merged into VRG Linhas Aéreas, which operates under the two brands.
Sud Aviation SE 210 Caravelle
The French Sud Aviation SE 210 Caravelle is a twin-engine jet airliner, the first developed to serve short/medium-range routes. It first flew in May 1955, entering service in April 1959 with SAS. Production ended in 1972 with 282 airframes completed; eight remained in commercial service in late 2002.
The flight crew consists of two pilots and a flight engineer, and the passenger cabin seats up to 140, five abreast depending on the variant. Early models used two Rolls-Royce Avon turbojet engines, later the Pratt & Whitney JT8D low-bypass turbofan engine, mounted one per side on the rear fuselage
