Influence
Caipira Airways could be possibly based on the brazilian airline Azul, which has as main destinations Belo Horizonte and Campinas, both places are famous places for rednecks, hence the name Caipira; however, unlike Caipira Airways, Azul is not an international company, which means that Caipira Airways draws some inspiration from the defunct Varig, which was the first brazilian international airline; additionally, the Varig logos and paintjobs looks similar to those of the Caipira Airways.
