Airlines of Tasmania, also known by the name Par-Avion in some markets,〔(CASA website link to Airlines of Tasmania AOC ) retrieved 22 January 2009. Dead link〕 is a regional airline based in Hobart, Tasmania, Australia. It operates a fleet of light aircraft on scheduled and chartered services between Launceston in Tasmania and Cape Barren Island, as well as Essendon in Victoria and Griffith in New South Wales. Airlines of Tasmania owns and operates Cambridge Aerodrome, a flying training school which is affiliated with the University of Tasmania and a tourism business into the Southwest National Park of Tasmania. == History == Airlines of Tasmania was established as a regular public transport operator (previously it had been an airwork operator) in 1978, along with Par-Avion, a different branding used for chartered and sightseeing flights.〔(Information about Airlines of Tasmania at airlineupdate.com ) Dead link〕 During its early years, the company had regular services to the West Coast from Queenstown and Strahan.〔(Historic timetables of Airlines of Tasmania ) Dead link〕〔(Airlines of Tasmania website ) retrieved 22 January 2009. Dead link〕 In the 2004–2005 year there was a service between Hobart and Strahan, but this service was closed due to marginal traffic. Early in 2008, the airline moved its Melbourne operations from Moorabbin Airport to Essendon Airport, due to the airline upgrading its fleet by introducing the Dornier Do 228. During October 2010, Sharp Airlines took over all scheduled operations to Flinders Island. During July 2012, Sharp Airlines took over all scheduled operations to King Island. In December 2013, the airline announced a partnership with the University of Tasmania, for flying training study as part of a Tertiary Qualification. In February 2014, the airline announced it was intending to expand into the mainland and commence regular services from Essendon to Griffith.〔http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-02-11/griff-melb-flight/5251124?§ion=news〕 Following approval by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority, the airline announced the first services would begin on 17 March, under the Par Avion brand. It is expected the airline will use Cessna 404 Titan equipment on the new route. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Airlines of Tasmania」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
