Cruzeiro do Sul – Western Route ’45

 

Cruzeiro do Sul

 

Cruzeiro do Sul came from the Syndicato Condor, a Lufthansa subsidiary founded in 1927 operating passenger and mail services in Brazil. It was renamed Cruzeiro do Sul in 1943.

 

Originally the airline had operated German Junkers aircraft but by 1945 the availability of spares was becoming difficult. So in 1945 Cruzeiro do Sul upgraded the aircraft to DC3s.
