Decorating against the wind

In December 2012, it was one hundred years since the first flights were carried out in the country. However, the true beginning of Colombian aviation, both civil as a military one, it only happened a little later, in 1919, soon becoming much more than just another means of transportation. Its first decades, marked by experimentation and heroism, as illustrated here, gave way to maturity and the consolidation of a prosperous and dynamic aerial activity that today is a source of national pride.

Our aviation today flies safer, higher, farther and faster than ever. This novel book, profusely and beautifully illustrated about the history of that aviation, will set readers' imagination, memories and, in some cases, nostalgia soaring.
