Cnac

The China National Aviation Corporation (CNAC) was established in 1929 as a joint venture between Curtiss-Wright, a leading American aeronautical corporation, and the Chinese government. It later came under the ownership of Pan American Airways in 1933. CNAC played a pioneering role in commercial air service in China, operating throughout the country until its closure in 1949.

CNAC's remarkable achievements include being the first to fly the Hump, a perilous and historic feat during World War II. The airline's rich history is preserved through various books, monuments, and memorials, and the CNAC Association continues to connect individuals with a shared interest in the company's legacy.
