SAHSA & TAN: Honduran Partners to the End

[RStretton]

Latin America was full of interesting and attractive airlines. SAHSA had a pretty torrid time of it but along with its partner TAN it served Honduras for nearly 50 years. The abbreviation "Stay At Home, Stay Alive" seems cruel but it did make me smile!

Also this is a nice model and there are plenty of other SAHSA and TAN schemes and aircraft that could be made in smallish numbers. A TAN 737 would especially be welcome.

This model is very hard to find now. Great shame as I would like to have one. Maybe a SAHSA and TAN Electa too?

I'm not familiar with either of these carriers. Wasn't "TACA" Honduran based, or was it Nicaraguan or Costa Rican? My dad used to fly into Tegucigalpa when he flew air freighters back before retiring in the late 90's. He said it was one of the most interesting approaches flying into that airport LOL.
