Abstract

When in 1957, the delivery of Aero-3 school airplanes to JRV began (in addition to two prototypes in 1954, 55 in 1957, 36 in 1958, and the last 20 in 1960, i.e. a total of 113 with prototypes), it was decided to most of the remaining Aero-2 aircraft were given to the Air Force of Yugoslavia. Already in 1957, the first 23 Aera-2Cs were delivered to VSJ, in the following year 1958, 20 Aera-2Ds were delivered, in 1959, 42 Aera-2Cs, in 1960, 38 Aera-2DEs, and finally in 1961, another Aero- 2DE, i.e. a total of 124. However, the technical inspection of the Aero-2 aircraft was still not carried out by the Civil Air Force, because these planes were not registered with the Administration, but were kept in the registry of the JRV Command. However, the dualism regarding the control of the Aero-2 aircraft led to the fact that the control was not effective and that again to frequent accidents. Therefore, the Aviation Material Inspectorate proposed appropriate measures to the JRV Command. It was requested that the command decide or that the military control take care of the pilots who fly on these planes, regardless of whether the pilots are civilians or military personnel, or that the planes be registered in the civil registry so that all the measures that are applied to them also apply applied in the civil registry. The Command decided on the second solution, that is to register the Aero-2 aircraft in the Civil Aircraft Register of the SFRY. However, the scrapping of Aero-2 aircraft was also high in VSJ, so that in 1963 only 75 of them received civil registration. The very next year, in 1964, another Aero-2 (YUCVN) was registered as the last 76th registered.Aero-2 airplanes were withdrawn from use in VSJ very quickly so that on 12/31/1967 there were only 10 of them and on 12/31/1970 only one more YU-CRC in Sarajevo. He will remain in the register until December 31, 1975, while he will no longer be in the register for the following year.
