As the time to celebrate the Centennial of Civil Aviation is fast approaching, we invite you to join us in exploring the pages of history that marked the beginnings of this century-long story.
100 years since the beginning of a story that has united people, cities, and destinies.
On June 24, 1926, with the inauguration of the Bucharest–Galați–Chișinău and Bucharest–Galați–Iași air routes, one of the most important chapters in the history of civil aviation in the region was written. These flights represented more than just a technical achievement of their time—they symbolized progress, connectivity, and confidence in a future built on bringing people closer together.
The Centennial of Civil Aviation is an opportunity to look back with gratitude at the pioneers who had the courage to transform the sky into a bridge between communities and lay the foundations for an industry that continues to shape the world today.
Within the pages of this presentation, we find the founding moments of civil aviation, historical documents and images, philatelic milestones, and testimonies of a history that has spanned a century.
We are celebrating not just an anniversary, but the legacy of a generation of visionaries who demonstrated that distances can be overcome and that the sky can become a space for cooperation, development, and peace.
