🇨🇴 About the Airline
AeroSur was a Bolivian airline founded in 1992, operating from its main hub in Santa Cruz de la Sierra. Known for its colorful purple and green livery and the slogan 'La Buena Costumbre de Volar', AeroSur served domestic and international routes throughout South America until ceasing operations in 2012. The airline's distinctive branding and relatively short operational history make models in this livery particularly sought after by collectors of Latin American aviation.
