ASOCIATIA AEROSPATIALA ROMANA / Romanian Aerospace Association: Comandor aviator George Davidescu...

I like very much to communicate. That is because communication means to better know and understand each other. Born and raised on a small country farm at about 150-km from Romania’s capital city, Bucharest, my roots lay in rural country. I was attracted by keen sensitivity to nature, down-to-earth practicality combined with fervent idealism and poetry. I always wanted to see what was over the next hill and I also was a voracious reader and thus largely self-educated, gregarious and deeply interested in people. My first beginning to a flying job was some fifty-five years ago, if one counts from July the 27th, 1950, my birth date. Before venturing off into the wild blue yonder, and a dream to blossom and become fruitful, apparently it all started at about three years of age, with looking into the sky for any strangers to come down from their flying machines. Graduated my primary school at that farming village and continued it, and added secondary school studies in the nearby town of Buzãu, and aviation training for particularly the flying profession followed (that is an other three-year period of training time).

Born in 1952 (April 17th), raised in a mixture of rural village and provincial town, Mr. TINEL CONSTANTINESCU has graduated as engineer at Universitatea Tehnică „Gh. Asachi” in Iași. He has previously graduated at Colegiul National "Costache Negruzzi" , Iasi. Mr. Constantinescu Tinel always had a keen interest in aerospace science, engineering and paranormal human behaviour... He is a real friend when you are in need, scrupulous entrepreneur, with huge attention payed to the detail and a very young spirit.

The words ‘manager’ or ‘boss’ and ‘leader’ are not synonymous. The differences are sometimes subtle, sometimes great. Warren Bennis, an American leadership guru, has written many books on the topic. Bennis defines the following differences between managers and leaders: The manager administers, the leader innovates. The manager is a copy [of other managers], the leader is an original. The manager maintains, the leader develops. The manager focuses on systems and structure, the leader focuses on people. The manager relies on control, the leader inspires trust. The manager takes a short-range view; the leader has a long-range perspective. The manager’s eye is always on the bottom line, the leader’s eyes are on the horizon. The manager does things right, the leader does the right thing.

1896, s-a nascut pilotul cdor. av. George Davidescu -poreclit "englezul", pentru eleganta sa si calm. Perioada iunie 1943 - 23 August 1944 a fost cea in care a indeplinit functia de sef de stat major al Corpului Aerian.

A fost unul dintre inițiatorii și organizatorul principal a două raiduri Bucuresti - Cape Town si retur.Raidul a fost făcut cu trei aeronave de formare ICAR M.23b. Echipajele au fost cpt.. av. Mihail Pantazi și Dumitru Ploesteanu (mecanic expeditiei), lt. cdor. Alexandru Cernescu și Max Manolescu, cpt.. av. George Davidescu și Petre Ivanovici. Au plecat de la București la 22 octombrie 1933 și se îndreaptă spre Istanbul. De acolo au zburat la Konya - Alep (Siria)-Cairo (Egipt) - Assuan - Khartoum - Malakal. Raidul lor a fost oprit din cauza unor probleme tehnice, și a trebuit să se întoarcă acasă, ajungând la București la 17 noiembrie.

Al doilea raid : Max Manolescu și Petre Ivanovici (ucis într-un accident de avion ), au fost înlocuiti de cpt.. cdor. av. Gheorghe Jienescu și cpt.. av. Gheorghe Olteanu.Mecanicul Anton Stengher s-a alăturat expediției aeriene. Au plecat pe 14 aprilie 1935 de la București și, în urma același traseu, Malakal - Nairobi (Kenya) - Salisbury - Pietersburg - Bucharest - Kimberly - Cape Town.

War episode:
Because cdor. av. Davidescu did not take part in any war mission, I decided to relate some of his inter-war exploits. He was one of the initiators and main organizer of two raids Bucharest - Cape Town and return.
The first raid was made with three ICAR M.23b training aircraft. The crews were cpt. av. Mihail Pantazi and Dumitru Ploesteanu (expedition's mechanic), lt. cdor. Alexandru Cernescu and of. ec. cl. III Max Manolescu, cpt. av. George Davidescu and of. ec. cl. III Petre Ivanovici. They left from Bucharest on 22 October 1933 and headed for Istanbul. From there they flew to Konya - Alep (Syria)-Cairo (Egypt) - Assuan - Khartoum - Malakal. There, their raid was stopped, due to technical problems, and had to return home, arriving in Bucharest on 17 November.

For the second raid they chose an airplane more suited to the task: the ICAR Universal. Max Manolescu and Petre Ivanovici (killed in a plane crash in the meantime) were replaced by cpt. cdor. av. Gheorghe Jienescu and cpt. av. Gheorghe Olteanu. The mechanic Anton Stengher also joined the expedition. They left on 14 April 1935 from Bucharest and, following the same route, arrived at Malakal on 18. From there they headed to Nairobi (Kenya) - Salisbury - Pietersburg - Johannesburg - Kimberly - Cape Town. They landed at their final destination on 25 April. Five days later they started their return journey and, on 25 May, they entered Romanian airspace, being escorted by 9 ARR Potez XXVs. At Baneasa airfield a huge crowd had gathered to greet them, as well as many VIPs. Later that day, they were taken to the Royal Palace, where they were awarded the "Virtutea Aeronautica" Order Gold Cross class for their achievement.
Died: 1972, Bucharest.
