LADE

The airline was established as an arm of the Argentine Air Force in September 1940 (1940-09) to service unprofitable routes to remote areas.

The limited length of the runway at Port Stanley Airport resulted in weight regulations to the aircraft operating the route, which restricted the number of carried passengers to a maximum of 22 per flight, along with a reduced volume of mail and freight.

[6] Ten years later, at March 1990 (1990-03), the fleet had grown to include five Fokker F.28-1000Cs, 13 F.27s —six -400Ms, two -500s and five -600s—, one Lockheed L-100-30 and seven Twin Otters.
