TAM – Marília, an air taxi company founded on February 21, 1961 at the city of [[Marília]], provided the start-up infrastructure for TAM – Regionais. ===TAM – Transportes Aéreos Regionais (KK)=== On November 11, 1975, the [[Brazilian military government|Government of Brazil]] created the Brazilian Integrated System of Regional Air Transportation and divided the country in to five different regions, for which five newly created regional airlines received a concession to operate air services. Founded by [[Rolim Amaro|Rolim Adolfo Amaro]],<ref>{{cite book| last1=Guaracy|first1=Thales|title=O sonho brasileiro: como Rolim Adolfo Amarou criou a TAM e sua filosofia de negócios|year=2003|publisher=Girafa|language=pt|isbn=85-89876-02-0|page=480}}</ref> '''TAM – Transportes Aéreos Regionais S/A''' was the third of those regional airlines to be made operational. Its services started on July 12, 1976, and its operational area comprised parts of the [[Southeast Region, Brazil|Southeast]] and [[Central-West Region, Brazil|Central West]] regions of Brazil, specifically the states of [[Mato Grosso do Sul]], and parts of [[Mato Grosso]], and [[São Paulo (state)|São Paulo]] plus the possibility of serving the cities of [[Cuiabá]], [[Rio de Janeiro]], [[Londrina]], [[Maringá]], and [[Brasília]] when linking them to its area of concession.<ref>{{cite book|first=Gílson de Lima|last=Garófalo|title=O Mercado Brasileiro de Transporte Aéreo Regional|place=São Paulo| publisher=Instituto de Pesquisas Econômicas|year=1982|language=pt|pages=103–107, 122–125}}</ref> TAM – Linhas Aéreas Regionais was formed as a joint-venture between TAM – Táxi Aéreo Marília, and [[VASP]] which was then a state-owned airline. The airline received the IATA code KK<ref>{{cite web|url=http://tam.com.br/default_flash.htm|title=TAM|date=13 October 1999|access-date=15 May 2017|url-status=bot: unknown|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/19991013025157/http://tam.com.br/default_flash.htm|archive-date=13 October 1999}}</ref> on October 13, 1999. The new airline flew [[Embraer EMB 110 Bandeirante]]s at first, but these proved grossly inadequate for the task at hand, and even at full capacity needed to be subsidized by the government in order to be profitable. TAM went on to purchase three used [[Fokker F27]] turboprops, which were subsequently refurbished by [[Fokker]] in the [[Netherlands]]. In order to obtain the import authorization for the aircraft, a deal was struck with the government in which TAM was forced to maintain three [[Embraer EMB 110 Bandeirante|Bandeirantes]] for every F27, as well as removing five seats from each one, bringing the F27's capacity down to 40 passengers. A fourth F27, previously owned by [[Air New Zealand]], was added to the TAM fleet in 1981. By 1983, TAM had acquired 10 F27s. By 1981, TAM had flown 1 million passengers, and 2 million by 1984. ===TAM (KK) joint operations with TAM (JJ)=== [[File:TAMHQSaoPaulo.jpg|thumb|TAM's former headquarters, located at Congonhas Airport.]] [[File:LOGO TAM.svg|thumb|TAM's former logo (1980-2008)]] {{Main|Brasil Central Linhas Aéreas}} Under financial stress, the company went public in August 1986, and began floating stock in the market. The same year, TAM – Transportes Aéreos Regionais (KK) acquired another regional airline, [[VOTEC]], which operated in areas of northern and central Brazil. VOTEC was then renamed [[Brasil Central Linhas Aéreas]]. TAM and Brasil Central were both regional airlines and operated in different designated areas. They, however, operated as a [[consortium]] with integrated networks and fleet, with the most notable differences being the flight number IATA codes (whereas TAM had the IATA code KK, Brasil Central operated with the code JJ inherited from VOTEC), the different color schemes of the aircraft, and their designated areas of operation. In 1988, TAM flew its 3 millionth passenger. On May 15, 1990, the Brazilian Government lifted restrictions on operational areas of regional airlines allowing them to fly anywhere in Brazil. As a consequence, Brasil Central was renamed ''TAM - Transportes Aéreos Meridionais'', acquired the same color scheme of TAM (KK) but maintained the IATA code JJ. In 2000, TAM (KK) was merged into TAM (JJ) and TAM (JJ) was renamed TAM Transportes Aéreos. The code JJ was maintained and the code KK was released back to IATA. Despite TAM's success in the market, it was evident the airline would not last long when competing against airlines such as [[Varig]] and [[VASP]], both of which already possessed [[Boeing 737]]s in their fleet. Amaro then tried to buy VASP, which was about to be privatized and called the project "Revolution". Having lost the bid, he opted for slower growth with the gradual addition of new aircraft, re-dubbed "Evolution". ===Consolidation of Services=== {{Main|Helisul Linhas Aéreas|Itapemirim Transportes Aéreos|Pantanal Linhas Aéreas}} On September 15, 1989, TAM arranged for the acquisition of two [[Fokker 100]] jets. Like the [[Fokker F27|F27]]s before them, TAM did not actually purchase these aircraft but used Amaro's credibility to arrange for a third-party asset management company, [[Guinness Peat Aviation]], to purchase them and subsequently lease them back to TAM. Two more were added in 1991. In 1992, TAM carried its 8 millionth passenger. By 1993, through the use of the Fokker 100 fleet, which now numbered at 14, TAM was serving 56 cities in Brazil. [[File:Departures board at Miami Airport in Florida, US.jpg|thumb|A departures board showing a TAM flight at [[Miami International Airport]] in August 2010]] In 1996, TAM bought another airline, [[Helisul Linhas Aéreas]], which used the trade name of TAM. In 1997, TAM ordered its first large jets; the airline ordered 45 planes from [[Airbus]], including 10 [[Airbus A330|A330]]s, 4 [[Airbus A319|A319s]], and 34 [[Airbus A320|A320s]]. In 1997, the Airbuses began to be delivered and the airline flew its first international service from São Paulo to [[Miami International Airport]]. In 1998, TAM purchased the passenger division of [[Itapemirim Transportes Aéreos]]. Two years later, in 1999, services to [[Europe]] were inaugurated through a [[codeshare agreement|code share]] service with [[Air France]], to [[Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport]]. In 2000, the airline was renamed '''TAM Linhas Aéreas'''. Long running discussions to merge with [[Varig]] ended in 2004. In 2008, TAM transported 30,144,000 passengers, with an average load factor of 71%.<ref name="airways">Airways magazine, ''Fast Facts - TAM Linhas Aereas'', February 2010, p. 25</ref> As of 2010, the airline is owned by the Amaro family (46.25%), Amaro Aviation Part (3.52%), treasury stocks (0.27%), and minority shareholders (49.96%).

On September 1, 1996, TAM via ARPA, purchased 80% of the shares of the former state-owned [[Líneas Aéreas Paraguayas]] and merged it with ARPA. The new airline was named ''TAM – Transportes Aéreos del Mercosur'' and maintained the IATA code of LAP, PZ. TAM owned 94.98% and the [[Paraguay]]an government 5.02% of the shares. In 2008, following a branding strategy, the name TAM Mercosur was dropped and the airline adopted an identical corporate identity of TAM Airlines. However, its corporate structure remained the same.<ref>{{cite press release|author=<!--Staff writer(s); no by-line.-->|title=TAM Airlines Consolidates Fleet and Initiates New Air Network|url=https://www.thefreelibrary.com/TAM+Airlines+Consolidates+Fleet+and+Initiates+New+Air+Network-a0179405129|location=Sao Paulo, Brazil|publisher=PRNewswire|date=27 May 2008|access-date=22 December 2017|archive-date=25 December 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171225091935/https://www.thefreelibrary.com/TAM+Airlines+Consolidates+Fleet+and+Initiates+New+Air+Network-a0179405129|url-status=dead}}</ref> The airline was informally known as TAM Paraguay, and used the IATA code PZ.

The aircraft failed to rotate and five seconds later a "tail strike" warning was generated in the cockpit. The aircraft finally lifted off the runway at 180 knots. In a preliminary report ANSV stated that erroneous takeoff parameters were used to calculate the takeoff speeds. VR was in fact 181 knots, not 149. Runway 35L, which was the runway it took off from, was closed for inspection as a result of the accident.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Ranter |first=Harro |title=Tailstrike Serious incident Boeing 777-32WER PT-MUG, Tuesday 9 July 2024 |url=https://asn.flightsafety.org/wikibase/392591 |access-date=2024-12-27 |website=asn.flightsafety.org}}</ref> ==Subsidiaries== *[[LATAM Cargo Brasil]] provides cargo services.<ref name="Subsid">"[http://www.tam.com.br/b2c/vgn/v/index.jsp?vgnextoid=e6bd09f1157f2210VgnVCM1000000b61990aRCRD TAM Group Companies] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160204173921/http://www.tam.com.br/b2c/vgn/v/index.jsp?vgnextoid=e6bd09f1157f2210VgnVCM1000000b61990aRCRD|date=2016-02-04}}."
