Description

Generations of Greeks in Greece and abroad grew up with the legend of the Olympic Airways of the five continents. However, most people are unaware of the details, intricacies, and backstage that led to the creation of the airline with the Olympic circles, which survives to this day. In this highly mysterious story, 12 top politicians - who at some point served as prime ministers of Greece - were personally involved, as well as famous entrepreneurs such as Onassis, Niarchos, and Goulandris, bankers such as Pesmazoglou, Kostopoulos, Zolotas, and Iliaskos, decision-making centers in London and Washington, as well as foreign and local investors.

Through the narrative lever of a unique personality in the country's business chronicles, the "father" of Greece's civil aviation and creator of TAE, Stefanos Zotos, Onassis and Squadron X present the fascinating journey of Greece's air communications through the unpublished archives of Civil Aviation, overturning myths and assumptions that survived for decades until today: The restart of a country after the devastating Occupation, which leaves it without a single airplane; the birth of TAE, which will also be the first foreign investment welcomed by the country post-war; London's effort to maintain the last remnants of guardianship in the country through aviation; the opening of the aviation market amidst civil war; the state intervention of the Center governments; the extermination of TAE by the Alarm government; the conflict between Onassis and Niarchos for the acquisition of the company; and the birth of Olympic Airways.
