- Q6546685 abstract "Ligne Aérienne du Roi Albert (LARA) was a short-lived civilian airline in the Belgian Congo colony.Fleet: Levy Lepen hydroplane.Route: Leopoldville - Ngombe - Lisala - Stanleyville.Belgium had set up the SNETA in 1919 to study the possibilities and options of civilian air transport. In Europe, Sabena was created as a result, in their African colony the Belgians created CENAC, which would evolve into the Ligne Aerienne du Roi Albert, so named after King Albert 1 who was a driving force behind the project. The possibility of exploiting an aerial route along the Congo river was studied under the leadership of Mr Allard, civil engineer, and Mr Michaux, a military officer. The airline had only a short life, first opening a 580 km leg from Kinshasa (formerly Leopoldville) to Gombe on July 1, 1920. The second leg, 610 km from Gombe to Lisala was opened on March 3, 1921. On July 1, 1921, exactly one year after the initial flight, the entire route from Kinshasa to Kisangani (1725 km) was finally opened, but operations were discontinued on June 7, 1922. It operated six french-built Levy Lepen HB2 hydroplanes upstream along the river Congo. This choice was dictated by the absence of any landing sites along the route. The aircraft were also used to photograph and map the area. The airline was the very first one set-up by a European colonial power overseas. In total 125,000 km were covered during the airline's short life, amounting to 80 round trips, carrying 95 passengers and 2 tons of mail.After its demise, a Congo local network was set up by SABENA, followed by a Belgium-Congo link in 1935.".
