Club Aviata

Klub Awiata or Club Aviata, an aviation society, was founded 24 Oct. 1909 at Lemberg in Galicia, Austria-Hungary. In 1911, or possibly 1910, it joined the Oesterreichischer Luftschiffer Verban (OeLV) or Austrian Aeronaut Federation.

The initial officers included Andreas Lubomirski, president; Wladislaw Ritter, Count Moritz Dzieduszycki, Tadeusz Rutowski, and Dr. Stanislaw von Rybicki, vice presidents; and Edmund Libanski, secretary and office director. Lieutenant Field Marshall A. Schodler was honorary president and Lieutenant Field Marshall J. Tapeiner was honorary vice president. In 1910, the club had 120 members and owned one glider. It used the Pierrennbahn near Lemberg as its flight place.

Affiliated with OeLV, ca. 1911
