- Short Description
- "British South American Airways (BSAA) was a state-run airline of the United Kingdom in the mid-late 1940s responsible for services to the Caribbean and South America. Originally named British Latin American Air Lines it was renamed before services started in 1946. BSAA operated mostly Avro aircraft: Yorks, Lancastrians and Tudors and flew to Bermuda, the West Indies, Mexico and the western coast of South America. After two high-profile aircraft disappearances it was merged into the British Overseas Airways Corporation at the end of 1949.
Most of BSAA's aircraft were given individual aircraft names beginning with "Star", which have long been used in long-range celestial navigation." - (en.wikipedia.org 14.11.2023) - Entity Encoding
