Welcome to Aeroklub Prijedor
Aeroklub Prijedor is an aviation-sports organization founded in 1952, with a tradition spanning over 70 years. The beginnings of aviation in this area reach back to World War II and the 1940s, largely thanks to national hero pilots Franjo Kluz, Rudi Čajavec, and Milutin Jazbec.
The first founding assembly of the club, which was then called "Kozara," was held on March 4th, 1952.
Our Vision
Our goal is to develop aviation in the region, preserve tradition, and train new generations of pilots, glider pilots, and parachutists.
