Make the desk a stop on a historic route. This Air Afrique mouse pad pays tribute to the Pan-African airline headquartered in Abidjan, founded in 1961 as a carrier shared by francophone West and Central African nations. Its flights connected regional capitals with destinations including Paris and New York, evolving from DC-4 aircraft to 707s, DC-8s, DC-10s, Airbus aircraft, and Boeing types. A daily-use collectible for aviation-minded workspaces.
Air Afrique was a Pan-African airline headquartered in Abidjan, Ivory Coast, created as the official transnational carrier for francophone West and Central Africa. Conceived in February 1960 as a joint subsidiary of Air France and Union Aéromaritime de Transport, it was formally founded under the Treaty of Yaoundé on 28 March 1961. Eleven newly independent former French colonies supplied most of the original capital, while Air France and UAT each held 17 percent. Operations began on 1 August 1961 with leased DC-4 aircraft, and long-haul service followed that October. Boeing 707s entered intercontinental service in January 1962, followed by DC-8s, Caravelles, DC-10s, Airbus aircraft and Boeing types. UAT merged with TAI to form UTA in 1963; Air France later became UTA's controlling shareholder in 1990. Air Afrique served African, European and North American destinations, but financial difficulties deepened from the 1980s. It ceased operations in January 2002 and was declared bankrupt on 7 February 2002. Air France took over most of its routes, while proposed revival plans did not materialise.
