The first flight, which landed in a Sudanese Airport
at Shejara was in 1913; just one decade after
the successful attempts of the Right Brothers. In
1936 the Sudan Civil Aviation Department was
established. Sudan Airways was incorporated under
The Companies’ Ordinance (1925) Act; in 1947. The
Company started with four De Havilland 8 Seater
Dove Aircrafts, being the first acquisition of this type
in the region, as well as pioneering the introduction
of seven 28-seater DC3s in 1952.
The Company was the first in Africa to acquire F27
Turboprop-powered aircraft, with a 36 passenger
seating capacity. A gradual fleet modernization
plan was adopted and the company introduced the
Boeing 737 and B707 in the 1970s, Fokker 50s in the
1980s and Airbus A310s the 1990s.
