Air Spain was a Spanish charter airline that operated from 1965 to 1975. Its main base was Son Sant Joan Airport, in Palma de Mallorca, Balearic Islands. Air Spain was established in January 1965 by Lieutenant General Rafael García Valiño and Banco del Noroeste. Its Director General was José Maria Rivero de Aguilar and its Director of Operations Colonel Carbó. Both directors were relatives of General García Valiño and both were as well from military background, which facilitated their relationship with the Director General of Civil Aviation and made possible the issuing of licenses, a common practice in Francoist Spain. The airline began operations in May 1967 using ex British Eagle Bristol Britannia turboprop aircraft. With the aim of modernizing the fleet, the Britannias were replaced between 1971 and 1973 by ex Eastern Air Lines Douglas DC-8-20. As a result of increased operation costs owing to the 1973 oil crisis, the airline ceased operations in February 1975.
