#TBT: Líneas Aéreas Privadas Argentinas (LAPA) flights in 1994
Líneas Aéreas Privadas Argentinas (LAPA) was founded in 1977 and ceased flights in 2003 after a serious crisis deepened after the accident at Aeroparque on August 31st, 1999. During the first years, the company operated within the province of Buenos Aires, increasing its connectivity in the early 1980s.
The main aircraft that formed part of LAPA were the Saab 340 between 1987 and 1996, and the Boeing aircrafts that allowed the development of the airline in the mid and late 1990s.
Aeroparque was the most important hub of Líneas Aéreas Privadas Argentinas, adding Ezeiza in the last years with the arrival of charter flights and the service to Atlanta in partnership with Delta.

In 1994, LAPA had Boeing 737-200s and Saab 340s in its fleet, and operations were centralized at Aeroparque.
