Nicaragüense De Aviación
Nicaragüense de Aviación (also known as NICA) was an airline based in Nicaragua. Its main hub was the Augusto C. Sandino International Airport. The commercial airline was a full associate member of the Grupo TACA alliance of El Salvador. History NICA was founded in 1992 from the remains of Aeronica and commenced operations from Managua to Miami. In 1994, the Grupo TACA acquired 49% of NICA and reorganized the airline without government intervention. In 2004, the airline ceased operations and merged with TACA Airlines. Its domestic flight duties were given to Nicaragua's domestic flag carrier, La Costeña, who also joined the TACA Regional alliance. La Costeña however, differs from NICA because it still operates under its company name.

Airlines Disestablished In 2004
An airline is a company that provides air transport services for traveling passengers and freight. Airlines use aircraft to supply these services and may form partnerships or alliances with other airlines for codeshare agreements, in which they both offer and operate the same flight. Generally, airline companies are recognized with an air operating certificate or license issued by a governmental aviation body. Airlines may be scheduled or charter operators. The first airline was the German airship company DELAG, founded on November 16, 1909. The four oldest non-airship airlines that still exist are the Netherlands' KLM (1919), Colombia's Avianca (1919), Australia's Qantas (1920) and the Czech Republic's Czech Airlines (1923). Airline ownership has seen a shift from mostly personal ownership until the 1930s to government-ownership of major airlines from the 1940s to 1980s and back to large-scale privatization following the mid-1980s.

The first prototype made its maiden flight on 26 March 1971, and an order was secured from the Spanish Air Force three years thereafter.

Production of the type at the Seville facility would continue for 40 years, with 483 aircraft produced. Indonesia emerged as a key early customer for the C-212. During 1975, the Indonesian airc ...
