The English edition detailing the history of JAT Yugoslav Airlines has been released. “Once There Was Yugoslav Airlines - JAT”. attempt to preserve, in one place, an authentic account of the people who built JAT, as well as the era and circumstances in which the company was created, grew and ultimately disappeared. It is the story of an enterprise that no longer exists just as the country in which it was founded no longer exists, yet one that left a deep and lasting mark.
The book is divided into two parts. The first presents a comprehensive account of JAT’s development and history, while the second, titled “Jatovci”, features fifty profiles of the most prominent pilots, executives and employees who shaped the company’s legacy. At the end of the book is a unique and valuable register of all pilots and flight crew members, including flight mechanics, radio operators and flight engineers, who flew in JAT’s commercial operations from 1947 to 2013. The list includes a total of 1.010 names, along with details of their ranks and the aircraft types they operated. The book spans 480 pages and is richly illustrated with around 350 photographs and illustrations.

DeleteLove this :)
ReplyDeleteEvo je na polici iza mene. Pročitao više puta. Objektivni prikaz kompanije čiji radnik sam bio, što uvijek i svugdje sa ponosom ističem. Bez kozmetike. Bez politike. Bez skrivenih namjera i poruka. Sa kritikama gdje su opravdane i sa detaljima o izvrsnom poslovanju i fantastičnim rezultatima koje je JAT postizao, pogotovo u zadnjih desetak godina SFRJ. Knjiga koju preporučam svakome kog zanima ili povijest/istorija ili zrakoplovstvo/avijacija, ili oboje, u obadva izdanja. I veliki pozdrav i poštovanje gospodinu Jovi!

DeleteCan not order it to Switzerland 😥
ReplyDeleteIs the English version available somewhere in Serbia?
ReplyDelete"There Was Once a Yugoslav Airlines" is really how you translate the meaning of the Serbian title.... Hopefully the content is translated better than the title. This English title translated back into Serbian is "Jednom bio JAT"
ReplyDelete👎👎👎👎👎
DeleteThat enterprise still exists, albeit under new management and completely rebranded. Air Serbia wouldn't exist today if it wasn't for trailblazing efforts made during JAT decades.
ReplyDeleteLots in all part of ex yu wouldnt exist if it wasnt for trail blazing SFRJ decades
