Hungary:
Malert (Magyar Legiforgalmi) was a Hungarian airline, founded on November
19, 1922. The airline folded in 1944, and was a fore-runner of MALÉV
Hungarian Airlines. NOTE: Hungary was on the losing side as a result of
its alliance with the Central Powers in World War One.
The main fleet before 1939 was five triple-engined German-built Junkers
52/3m aircraft HA-JUA to HA-JUE, delivered in 1936-39, and five somewhat
comparable triple-engined Italian-built Savoia-Marchetti SM-75 aircraft
HA-SMA to HA-SME, delivered in 1938-39.
Mainstream services operated in 1938-9 were daily Budapest-Krakow-Warsaw,
daily Budapest-Prague and daily Budapest-Vienna.

The Kingdom of Yugoslavia (Yugoslav, Latin script: Kraljevina Jugoslavija,
was a state stretching from the Western Balkans to Central Europe which
existed during the often-tumultuous interwar era of 1918–1941. It was
formed in 1918 by the merger of the provisional State of Slovenes, Croats
and Serbs, formed from territories of the defunct Austro-Hungarian Empire,
with the formerly independent Kingdom of Serbia. The Kingdom of Montenegro
united with Serbia just five days earlier, while the regions of Kosovo,
Vojvodina and Macedonia were parts of Serbia prior to the unification. For
its first eleven years of existence it was officially called Kingdom of
Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, but the term Yugoslavia was its colloquial
name from the very beginning. Another creation from the aftermath of World
War One.

recognised (de jure) by Finland on 7 July 1920, Poland on 31 December
1920, Argentina on 12 January 1921 and by the Western Allies on 26 January
1921.
Estonia maintained its independence for twenty-two years. Initially a
parliamentary democracy, the parliament (Riigikogu) was disbanded in 1934,
following political unrest caused by the global economic crisis.
Subsequently the country was ruled by decree by Konstantin Päts, who
became President in 1938, the year parliamentary elections resumed.

surrounding areas.
The Free City was created on 15 November 1920 in accordance with the terms
of Part III, Section XI of the Treaty of Versailles of 1919 without a
plebiscite. The Free City included the city of Danzig and over two hundred
nearby towns, villages, and settlements. As the League of Nations decreed,
the region was to remain separated from the nation of Germany, and from
the newly resurrected nation of Poland. The Free City was not an
independent state; it was under League of Nations protection and put into
a binding customs union with Poland. Poland also had special utilization
rights towards the city. The Free City was created in order to give Poland
sufficient access to the sea, while at the same recognizing that its
population was mainly German.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Deruluft (Deutsch-Russische Luftverkehrs A.G., or Deruluft) was a joint
Soviet-German airline, established on 24 November 1921. Deruluft opened
its first service to Moscow from Königsberg (later Kaliningrad) on 1 May
1922. It started a new route from Berlin via Tallinn to Leningrad on 6
June 1928, and maintained both routes until 31 March 1936.
Most of the aircraft used were German, and so was its organization, at
least until the 1930s. Its first aircraft were Dutch-built Fokker F.III's.
Later German Junkers F13's were added to the fleet. At first, Deruluft
carried only mail and officials, but on 27 August 1922 the service was
opened to the public. From 1929 onwards the early Fokker F.III's were
replaced by Dornier Merkur's. Early 1931 the Tupolev ANT-9 was added.
Deruluft was terminated on 31 March 1937.

-----------------------------------------------------------------Finland:
(Finnish: Suomi; Swedish: Finland), officially
the Republic of Finland, is a Nordic country situated in the Fennoscandian
region of Northern Europe. It is bordered by Sweden in the west, Norway in
the north and Russia in the east, while Estonia lies to its south across
the Gulf of Finland.
Finland was historically a part of Sweden, and from 1809–1917 was an
autonomous Grand Duchy within the Russian Empire. The Finnish Declaration
of Independence from Russia in 1917 was followed by a civil war in which
the leftist side was defeated with German support. Finland fought World
War II as essentially three separate conflicts: the Winter War
(1939–1940), the Continuation War (1941–1944), and the Lapland War
(1944–1945).
Finland was a relative latecomer to industrialisation, remaining a largely
agrarian country until the 1950s. Thereafter, economic development was
rapid. Finland built an extensive welfare state and balanced between the
East and the West in global economics and politics. With the best
educational system in Europe.
History of AERO OY:
In 1923, consul Bruno Lucander founded Finnair as Aero O/Y (Aero Ltd). The
company code originates from this AY = Aero Yhtiö i.e. company in Finnish.
Lucander had previously run the Finnish operations of the Estonian airline
Aeronaut. In mid-1923 he concluded an agreement with Junkers Flugzeugwerke
AG to provide aircraft and technical support in exchange for a 50%
ownership in the new airline. The charter establishing the company was
signed in Helsinki on September 12, 1923, and the company was entered into
the trade register on December 11, 1923. The first flight was flown on
March 20, 1924 from Helsinki to Tallinn, Estonia, with Junkers F.13
aircraft equipped with floats. The last seaplane service was operated in
December 1936 following the construction of the first aerodromes in
Finland.
Air raids on Helsinki and other Finnish cities made World War II a
difficult period for the airline. The company saw half of its fleet
requisitioned by the Finnish Air Force during that time, and it is
estimated that during the Winter War of 1939 and 1940 half of the
airline's passengers were children for evacuation to Sweden.
List of accidents of Aero Oy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
Aero O/Y is the original name of Finnair, the national airline of Finland.
Incidents and accidents of Aero Oy:
On 16 November 1927 a Aero O/Y Junkers F.13 disappeared on route from
Tallinn to Helsinki. The aircraft was carrying two Finnish officers and
the pilot. The pilot probably got lost, landed on water and sank.
On 10 November 1937, an Aero O/Y Junkers Ju 52 nose engine dropped off
into the sea during a scheduled flight from Turku to Stockholm. The pilots
managed to land safely with the two remaining engines. A broken propeller
blade had caused a severe imbalance tearing the engine off its mounting.
On 14 June 1940 - an Aero Junkers Ju52-3/mge aircraft flying from Tallinn
to Helsinki was shot down by two Soviet SB-2 bombers over the Gulf of
Finland (see: Kaleva Shootdown). At that time there was no war between the
Soviet Union and Finland.[2] Among the passengers were the French
diplomatic couriers Paul Longuet and Frederic Marty and US courier Henry
Antheil from the US embassy in Helsinki. The Soviet Union had declared an
embargo on Estonia on 9 June 1940, and the Soviet air force was ordered to
prevent Estonian or Latvian air force flights to Finland or Sweden.
Various theories for the shootdown have been presented, one being that the
Soviet Union wanted to get hold of the diplomatic mail that was
transported in the aircraft, and subsequently picked up by a Soviet
submarine which was operating in the area at the time of the downing.

The occupation of Constantinople and Smyrna by the Allies in the aftermath
of World War I prompted the establishment of the Turkish national
movement. Under the leadership of Mustafa Kemal Pasha, a military
commander who had distinguished himself during the Battle of Gallipoli,
the Turkish War of Independence was waged with the aim of revoking the
terms of the Treaty of Sèvres.
By September 18, 1922, the occupying armies were expelled, and the new
Turkish state was established. On November 1, the newly founded parliament
formally abolished the Sultanate, thus ending 623 years of Ottoman rule.
The Treaty of Lausanne of July 24, 1923, led to the international
recognition of the sovereignty of the newly formed "Republic of Turkey" as
the successor state of the Ottoman Empire, and the republic was officially
proclaimed on October 29, 1923, in the new capital of Ankara.

In 1832 Palestine was conquered by Muhammad Ali's Egypt, but in 1840
Britain intervened and returned control of the Levant to the Ottomans in
return for further capitulations. The end of the 19th century saw the
beginning of Zionist immigration and the Revival of the Hebrew language.
The movement was publicly supported by Great Britain during World War I
with the Balfour Declaration of 1917. The British captured Jerusalem a
month later, and were formally awarded a mandate in 1922. The non-Jewish
Palestinians revolted in 1920, 1929 and 1936. In 1947, following World War
II and the Holocaust, the British Government announced their desire to
terminate the Mandate, and the United Nations General Assembly voted to
partition the territory into a Jewish state and an Arab state. The Jewish
leadership accepted the proposal but the Arab Higher Committee rejected
it; a civil war began immediately, and Israel was declared in 1948. The
700,000 Palestinians who fled or were driven from their homes were unable
to return following the Lausanne Conference, 1949. In the 1948
Arab-Israeli War, Israel captured and incorporated a further 26% of the
Mandate territory, Jordan captured the region today known as the West Bank
and the Gaza Strip was captured by Egypt. In the course of the Six Day War
in June 1967, Israel captured the rest of Mandate Palestine from Jordan
and Egypt.
Lebanon was part of the Ottoman Empire for over 400 years, until 1918 when
the area became a part of the French Mandate of Syria and Lebanon
following World War I. By the end of the war, famine had killed an
estimated 100,000 people in Beirut and Mount Lebanon, about 30% of the
total population. On 1 September 1920, France re-established Greater
Lebanon after the Moutasarrifiya rule removed several regions belonging to
the Principality of Lebanon and gave them to Syria. Lebanon was a largely
Christian (mainly Maronite territory with some Greek Orthodox) enclaves
but it also included areas containing many Muslims (including Druze). On 1
September 1926, France formed the Lebanese Republic. A constitution was
adopted on 25 May 1926 establishing a democratic republic with a
parliamentary system of government. Lebanon gained independence in 1943,
while France was occupied by Germany. The Vichy authorities in 1941
allowed Germany to move aircraft and supplies through Syria to Iraq where
they were used against British forces. The United Kingdom, fearing that
Nazi Germany would gain full control of Lebanon and Syria by pressure on
the weak Vichy government, sent its army into Syria and Lebanon.
After the fighting ended in Lebanon, General Charles de Gaulle visited the
area. General de Gaulle recognized the independence of Lebanon. On 26
November 1941 General Georges Catroux announced that Lebanon would become
independent under the authority of the Free French government. Elections
were held in 1943 and on 8 November 1943 the new Lebanese government
unilaterally abolished the mandate. The French on 22 November 1943
recognized the independence of Lebanon.

DNL - Det Norske Luftfartselskap
Establishment
The first DNL was registered on 4 May 1927, with a share capital of NOK
6,500, with Arnold Ræstad and the main shareholder. On 18 June, the share
capital was raised to NOK 50,000, including a 20% stake owned by the
Municipality of Oslo and Norway Post. At the time, the only service to
Norway was Lufthansa, who operated from Gressholmen Airport in Oslo via
Gothenburg and Copenhagen to Warnemünde in Germany. Both DNL and Norske
Luftruter applied for ground handling for Lufthansa at Gressholmen. This
was granted to Norske Luftruter, but DNL was granted the concession to
operate the ferry to the island from Oslo East Station.
In 1930, the government appointed a civil aviation commission, led by
Admiral von der Lippe, to consider all aspects of civil aviation in
Norway. It concluded in 1932, and recommended that a single, large
national airline be established. The same year, the Municipality of Oslo
and the Norwegian Ministry of Defence appointed a committee with the goal
of building a civilian airport near Oslo. It concluded in June, and
recommended that the airport be built at Fornebu. By 1934, construction
had started, although the airport would not open until 1 June 1939.
On 1 September 1933, the Oslo-based shipping company Fred. Olsen & Co.,
owned by the brothers Thomas Fredrik Olsen and Rudolf Olsen, announced
their plans to establish a national airline. The foundation of the company
was made on 16 October 1933, with Thomas Olsen, Rudolf Olsen, Johan L.
Müller, Ganger Rolf and Bonheur—all within the Fred. Olsen sphere—as
owners. The airline was established with a share capital of NOK 750,000
and took over the former DNL. The new company was named Det Norske
Luftfartselskap Fred. Olsen A/S and hired Hjalmar Riiser-Larsen—since 1921
director of the Civil Aviation Council—as managing director. The Olsen
brothers and Müller were all elected to the board. The company's initial
plans were to gain the operating rights for the airports which were under
construction, including Fornebu; Kristiansand Airport, Kjevik; and
Stavanger Airport, Sola. The other was receive a state grant to start a
service from Oslo, via Kristiansand, to Amsterdam in cooperation with KLM.
Domestically, the airline wanted to operate the route from Oslo to
Kristiansand and from Kristiansand to Stavanger, Bergen and Ålesund.
An application was sent the government, at the time Mowinckel's Third
Cabinet, with a proposal for a ten-year concessions using land planes.
Routes were to start off with a five-month service, and gradually increase
to a full-year service from 1940. The company stated that it needed NOK
500,000 annually in support from the state and Norway Post for the
service. In 1933, the brothers Viggo Widerøe and Arild Widerøe—who would
found Widerøe in 1934—also applied for routes in the same areas, but using
sea planes on the route from Oslo via Kristiansand and Stavanger to
Haugesund. Also Norske Luftruter applied, but a three-year concession was
granted to Widerøe. The government stated that no airports had been built
yet, and would not be in the immediate future, so it was better to start
with sea plane services.
Riiser-Larsen went on a national lecture tour to gain support for civil
aviation, he also negotiated agreements to pool flights to Sweden with
Aerotransport, to Denmark with Det Danske Luftfartselskab, to Germany with
Lufthansa and to the United Kingdom with Imperial Airways.
In 1933, Thomas S. Falck was appointed director of Bergenske
Dampskibsselskab (BDS). Fred. Olsen wanted a partner for DNL, in part to
strengthen its geographic spread, and meetings were held between Olsen
family and Falck to introduce the Bergen-based company as a partner in DNL.
On 7 November 1934, Bergenske became a partner in DNL, and the company
renamed Det Norske Luftfartselskap Fred. Olsen og Bergenske A/S. Johan
Wulfsberg from BDS became a board member of DNL. As a reply to DNL's new
concession application to make short-term sea plane routes using a Junkers
Ju-52, the government urged DNL to make an alliance or merger with Widerøe.
By then, four regional shipping companies—Vesterålske, Nordenfjeldske,
Stavangerske and Arendalske—had bought the majority of Widerøe.

Det Danske Luftfartselskab A/S, (Danish Air Lines) or DDL, was Denmark's
flag carrier airline since 1918, and is the oldest airline still in
existence. DDL has, since 1946, been a part of the SAS Group.
DNL was established on 29 October 1918, but started its first scheduled
route on 7 August 1920.
History:
In 1920, the first airplane, a Flugzeugbau Friedrichshafen 49c, was
acquired from the Deutsche Luft-Reederei (D.L.R.) in Germany. The
airplane, with the previous German navy registration 1364, was almost new,
and had been refitted for passenger transport before being delivered from
Germany. It received the Danish registration letters T-DABA, and was used
for the Copenhagen-Malmö-Warnemünde route in cooperation with the D.L.R.
This plane was later returned to Germany, apparently because the transfer
was not in accordance to the Versailles treaty.
In 1921 another F.F.49c plane from D.L.R. was acquired as a replacement
for the first, with the previous German navy registration 3078. For
unknown reasons this airplane used the same Danish registration T-DABA.
In the early 1920s, the airline relied on four chartererd Fokker-Grulich
F.III aircraft, but also Dornier Komet, Junkers F.13s and the Airco D.H.9.
In 1926 the first of a total of four Farman F.121 Jabiru 4-engined
commercial airliners, seating nine passengers, were acquired. It was
registered as T-DOXB, and was used on the Copenhagen to Amsterdam line.
Amsterdam was a hub with connections to London and Paris. The aircraft
were withdrawn from use in 1928 and 1929, and broken up by 1931.
In the late 1920s, Fokker F.VII Trimotor three motor airliners replaced
the somewhat problematic and expensive to operate Farmans.
In 1933, the airline got the first of two 16 passenger Fokker F.XII
airliners. They were built under license by Orlogsværftet. Both aircraft
were scrapped in 1947.
In 1938, two Focke-Wulf_Fw_200 Condor 26 passenger airliners were
acquired. One, Dania, was seized by the British after Denmark was invaded
by German forces in 1940, and damaged beyond repair in 1941. The other,
Jutlandia, survived the war and continued in DDL service until damaged
beyond repair at Northolt in 1946.
In 1946, the airline started intercontinental traffic in cooperation with
Det Norske Luftfartselskap and Svensk Interkontinental Lufttrafik in an
SAS Agreement. On October 1, 1950 representatives from the three airlines
signed a consortium agreement where they appointed SAS to run the airline
operations. DDL thus changed status from being an active airline into
becoming a holding company for the Danish interests within SAS.

ABA - AB Aerotransport
KLM's Fokkers, seating 15 passengers, flew the routes between Amsterdam
and London/Paris, whereas ABA's Junkers, with space for 9 passengers,
joined the Fokkers to share the traffic between Amsterdam and Malmö.
Similar Junkers on floats were used between Stockholm and Helsinki. You
had to go by train between Malmö and Stockholm until Bromma Airport was
opened in 1936, enabling land planes to serve the Swedish capital.
ABA - AB Aerotransport flew its first flight in the summer of 1924 between
Stockholm and Helsinki.
Before WWII, ABA operated the Scandinavian Air Express jointly with KLM
between Scandinavia
and London/Paris via Amsterdam, and jointly with Aero O/Y between Sweden
and Finland.
Several different Scandinavian Air Express timetables were published,
often showing ABA's entire network.
Operations were curtailed during the war, though maintained on a limited
basis, including courier flights to and from Scotland.
In 1948, ABA merged with SILA, the Swedish intercontinental airline, which
was the Swedish part of the SAS consortium,
also consisting of DDL - Danish Air Lines and DNL - Norwegian Air Lines.
In the process, ABA took over the Swedish share of SAS.
SAS - Scandinavian Airlines System had been founded in 1946, initially to
operate the intercontinental routes of its owners.

AI for JAPAN:
The Meiji Restoration transformed the Empire of Japan into an
industrialized world power that pursued military conflict to expand its
sphere of influence. After victories in the First Sino-Japanese War
(1894–1895) and the Russo-Japanese War (1904–1905), Japan gained control
of Taiwan, Korea, and the southern half of Sakhalin. Japan's population
grew from 35 million in 1873 to 70 million in 1935.
The early 20th century saw a brief period of "Taishō democracy"
overshadowed by increasing expansionism and militarization. World War I
enabled Japan, on the side of the victorious Allies, to widen its
influence and territorial holdings. It continued its expansionist policy
by occupying Manchuria in 1931; as a result of international condemnation
of this occupation, Japan resigned from the League of Nations two years
later. In 1936, Japan signed the Anti-Comintern Pact with Nazi Germany,
and the 1940 Tripartite Pact made it one of the Axis Powers. In 1941,
Japan negotiated the Soviet–Japanese Neutrality Pact.
The Empire of Japan invaded other parts of China in 1937, precipitating
the Second Sino-Japanese War (1937–1945). In 1940, the Empire then invaded
French Indochina, after which the United States placed an oil embargo on
Japan. On December 7, 1941, Japan attacked the US naval base at Pearl
Harbor and declared war, bringing the US into World War II.
