Panair do Brasil (or simply "Panair") was Brazil's flag airline
and Latin America's largest carrier from the 1940s through the
1960s. It began operations in October 22nd, 1929, as NYRBA
do Brasil S.A., a local subsidiary of NYRBA, Inc. (New York,
Rio, and Buenos Aires Line). One year later, as the parent
company was acquired by Pan American World Airways, this
affiliate was renamed Panair do Brasil S.A. It ceased
operations abruptly in February 10th 1965, when the Brazilian
military government instated the year before suspended its
routes and alloted them to Varig. The controversial decision to
liquidate Panair so suddenly originated a long dispute in Court.
Finally, in December, 1984, it was recognized that the airline
operated within regular technical and financial parameters
when shut down, and the government was sentenced to pay
reparations to its former owners. The forced bankruptcy was
suspended on May 5th, 1995, and the company now seeks
indemnizations in Justice.
Facts
*Panair do Brasil was the first non-US airline to acquire the
Lockheed Constellation.
*In the 1940s, the airline had the most extensive network of
domestic routes in the world.
*Panair was the first international airline to land on the then
newly-innaugurated London Heathrow Airport, in April, 1946.
*Panair seconded only UK's BOAC in placing orders for the de
Havilland Comet, the world's first commercial jet airliner. The
orders were later cancelled due to flaws on the plane's original
design.
*Just as Pan Am called their planes "Clippers", Panair do Brasil
baptized its fleet with the names of "Bandeirantes".
*Panair do Brasil DC-8s can be seen in a handful of movies,
including French productions "La Peau Douce" (1964) and
"Homme de Rio" (1964).
*The abrupt shutdown of Panair was so traumatic to Brazilian
society under dictatorship that celebrated musicians Fernando
Brant and Milton Nascimento composed a song called "Nas
asas da Panair" ("On the wings of Panair") as a tribute to the
airline.
*Part of Panair's logo is still visible at the company's former
hangar at Santos Dumont Airport.
*Former employees of Panair do Brasil, their families and
friends attend an annual reunion on the week of October 22nd,
the airline's birthday. This tradition has been religiously
preserved since 1966 and there is a movement to include it in
the Guinness World Records.
*The airline has been the theme of a number of books. The
most recent, "Pouso forçado" (2005), made it to the finalists of
Prêmio Jabuti, Brazil's most important literature award.
