Please inform us by mail or fax, see our info page “ROMTECH” An aviation industry with special characteristics “ROMTECH” AVIATION IDUSTRY WITH SPECIAL CHARACTERISTICS In a world where diverging matters are called Girom, Tarom or Rompetrol for convenience sake the aviation industry could be called Romtech. A branch of industry with an own face specially looking at the special developments that came out of it. We are speaking now of the Romanian Aviation Industry that profiles itself from the Balkan with quality products that can easily compete with European norms at all times ! INDUSTRIAL TURBULENCE In the period 1968-1972 a new and own aviation industry came into exictence, six companies were part of it that all at their own eventhough cooperated in some way. When Romania decided in 1968 not to ‘co-occupy’ Prague they were sanctionised on aviation parts by the Russians. The complete Romanian aviation existed out of Russian types. What came next was a tour through Europe where a number of licences was gained. I.A.R. (Industria Aeronautica Romana) initially started with five vestigingen. IAR s.a. in Brasov specialised in helicopter production and produced the licenced Alouette 3 and the Puma. Avioane Craiova s.a. in Craiova concentrated on building their own jets. Turbomecanica/IAR Bucuresti was in business with Rolls Royce for the production of the Rolls Royce Viper jetengine and Aerofina / IAR Avionics in Boekarest which produced avionics ariginally joined forces with IAR Spare Parts in Costina.

  • Istoria Aviatiei Romane Impartirea Pe Baze a Aeronavelor
    Fortele Aeriene Romane – Romanian Air Force Introduction Relatively little is known about the interesting history of the Romanian Air Force or Fortele Aeriene Romane (FAR) as it is called since the dramatic events that took place in December 1989. Despite the fall of the dictatorial regime of Nicolae Ceausescu in that year, little more about the history of the Romanian Air Force was revealed throughout the 1990s. Things have changed somewhat for the better over the past few years and it is now time to put the spotlight on this very interesting Air Force that recently joined NATO. Being aware that many more details are still unknown today we hope that this article helps in more information becoming public in the future. History Military aviation history in Romania started as long ago as 1893 when the first military aviation unit was formed equipped with observation balloons. In 1910 Aurel Vlaicu constructed his own aircraft and taught himself how to fly the aircraft. Aurel Vlaicu took to the air for the first time on 17 June 1910 and this date is still celebrated today as the birthday of Romanian aviation. Pioneers like Aurel Vlaicu and others like Henri Coanda who in 1910 built the very first jet aircraft in the world, the Coanda-1910, are still being honoured today. On 1 April 1913 the predecessor of the Romanian Air Force was formed being only the fifth nation in the world to use aircraft in combat during the Balkans War in 1913. During the First World War the Corpul Aerian Roman – Romanian Air Corps, which was formed in 1915, successfully fought the German Air Force before the country was occupied by German- Austrian forces.
