History

[edit]

In September 29, 2003, the Khabarovsk government established the Regional State Unitary Enterprise (KSUE) Khabarovsk Airlines, established in April 2004 on the basis of the Nikolaev United Aviation Squadron.

The official date of birth of the Nikolaev air squadron, according to the order of the Civil Air Fleet No. 98, is August 8, 1934. On the date of creation, the air unit consisted of 3 Sh-2 aircraft; In 1948, on the basis of this flight, the 257th air squadron was organized, the fleet of which was replenished with 3 PO-2 aircraft.

In 1951, the 144th Combined Air Squadron was organized; In the same year, the first An-2 aircraft joined the squadron. In 1956, the PO-2 aircraft were replaced by the Yak-12T aircraft. In the same year, the first-born Mi-1 helicopter appeared at the airport. In 1958, flights began to be carried out on more powerful and heavier Li-2 aircraft. In 1960, new Mi-4 helicopters entered service.

In 1963, the 144th Flight Squadron was transformed into the Nikolaev-on-Amur United Air Squadron. In 1971, the first comfortable Mi-8 helicopter appeared in the sky over Nikolaevsk-on-Amur, later the Mi-2 helicopter arrived, replacing the Mi-1.

In 1984, the Nikolaevsky-on-Amur united air squadron received new turboprop aircraft L-410UVP, L-410UVP E. In 1994, the airline began operating its own comfortable Yak-40 aircraft.

Khabarovsk Airlines continued to develop new types of aircraft for the enterprise. Thus, in 2005, the An-26-100 cargo-passenger aircraft was put into operation, in 2009 An-24 passenger aircraft were purchased and are still in operation.
