S.A. de Transport Aérien (SATA) — also known as S.A. de Transport Aérien Genève — was a Swiss airline founded in June 1966, with its head office on the property of Geneva Airport,[1] and with its base in Geneva. It started as an air-taxi operator and evolved to passenger and cargo charters to points in Europe, the US, South America and the Caribbean. It terminated its activities in 1978.
On July 17, 1973, while landing at Tromsø/Langnes Airport in Norway, a Convair CV-640 landed heavily, bounced, and landed back nose-down, resting 15m short of the runway end.
