Linhas Aéreas Paulistas (LAP) S.A. was founded in 1943 but the first meeting of shareholders took place only on February 9, 1945.[1] In June 1945 LAP was given authorization to operate and in 1946 flights from São Paulo to Recife via the coast started. Later, flights were extended beyond Recife, to Campina Grande.[2]
12 July 1951: a Douglas DC-3/C-47 registration PP-LPG, operating a flight for Lóide Aéreo Nacional but still registered under LAP, flying from Maceió to Aracaju, after aborting a landing in adverse conditions in Aracaju, overflew the runway and initiated a turn in low altitude to the right. The aircraft crashed during this turn. All 33 passengers and crew died, including the Governor of the state of Rio Grande do Norte Jerônimo Dix-sept Rosado Maia, causing this accident to be the 2nd deadliest accident in Brazil at the time.[6][7]
