History
Rio Acre Aerotáxi (2007–2022)
Establishment
Rio Acre Aerotáxi was founded on December 4, 2007, with its headquarters at Plácido de Castro International Airport in Rio Branco, Acre. The company's name is a tribute to the Acre River, a watercourse that born in Peru and runs through Brazil, which was also the main stage of a landmark episode in Brazilian history, the Acre War, known in Brazil as Acrean Revolution (Portuguese: Revolução Acreana) and in Spanish as Guerra del Acre (War of the Acre), a border conflict between Bolivia and Brazil over the Acre Region.
Acquisition by the Gomes family
In 2012, with the need to transport his coffee production from Envira, in Amazonas, to cities such as Eirunepé and Itamarati, as well as Feijó, Jordão and Tarauacá, in Acre, businessman Wanderley da Silva Gomes, owner of the Indústria Gomes Comércio e Produtos Alimentícios company, beyond the brand Café Dugomes, decided to buy Rio Acre Aerotáxi, which became managed by his sons, Gleberson and Dennery Pinheiro Gomes, both commercial pilots. At this time, the company's fleet consisted of two aircraft, an Embraer EMB 720 Minuano registration PT-OFA (MSN 720136) and one Embraer EMB 810 Seneca II registration PT-OBL (MSN 810021).
In parallel to the air taxi, the family owns the travel agency Dugomes Agência de Viagens, in Cruzeiro do Sul, Acre, which offers passenger non-scheduled and charter flights on routes operated by Rio Acre Aerotáxi, generally the same ones used to transport Café Dugomes' production. As of 2020, the air taxi began to operate under the trade name of Dugomes Táxi Aéreo, although its corporate name continued as Rio Acre Aerotáxi.
