Transport Aérien Transrégional was a French regional airline with its head office on the grounds of Tours Val de Loire Airport in Tours. It was formed in 1968 as Touraine Air Transport (TAT) by M. Marchais.Air France acquired a minority stake in the airline in 1989. Between 1993 and 1996 the company was gradually taken over by British Airways. It subsequently merged with Air Liberté. The merged entity was sold on to the SAir Group in 2001, which in turn merged it with AOM.
Touraine Air Transport commenced scheduled operations in 1968. The airline acquired its first Beech 99 Airliner twin-engined turboprop passenger airliner in June 1971 and used this type to commence French internal services. These aircraft remained in operation with TAT until 1975.
During the 1970s TAT began building up a comprehensive network of regional, short-haul domestic and international scheduled routes, as a result of being taken over in 1973 by Société Auxiliare de Services et Materiel Aéronautiques (SASMAT), the owner of rival French regional airline Rousseau Aviation, as well as the subsequent mergers with regional rivals Taxi Avia France and Air Paris. The resulting regional network served 30 provincial points in France and neighbouring European countries from Paris Orly, Lyons Satolas, Lille and St. Brieuc, respectively.

TAT-12/13 is a ring cable system consisting of the 12th and 13th consortia transatlantic telephone cables, in operation from 1996, initially carrying 2 × 5 Gbit/s.
This was the first TAT cable to use a ring structure, involving two stretches of cable across the ocean floor, which explains why two numbers (12 and 13) were used. All later cables also use a ring structure, but only use one number (TAT-14 etc.). The cable connected between Long Island (at Shirley, New York), USA; Green Hill, Rhode Island, USA; Porthcurno, UK; Bude, UK; and Penmarch, France.
The cable was constructed for US$740 million and was supplied jointly by AT&T Submarine Systems, Inc (now TE Subcom owned by TE Connectivity), STC Submarine Systems (acquired by Alcatel-Lucent) and Alcatel Submarcom. Ring switching equipment was provided by the Toshiba Corporation in each of the four cable stations.
The cables in this system were the first on the trans-Atlantic route to make use of erbium-doped fiber amplifiers.
The TAT-12/13 consortia removed the cable from normal commercial service on 31 December 2008.
Bechain Dil Khoi Si Nazar
Tanhaaiyon Men Shaam O Sahar
Tum Yaad Aate Ho
Dil Nahin Pahalu Men Rah Gai Do Aankhen
Jaane Kya Kya Hamase Kah Gai Do Aankhen
Sunasaan Raaton Men Aksar
Jab Chaand Pe Jaati Hai Nazar
Tum Yaad Aate Ho
Dil To Divaana Tha Ham Bhi Kya Kar Baithe
Marz Jaane Kya Tha Kya Dava Kar Baithe
Ik Aah Thandi Si Bhar Kar
Unase Koi Kah De Jaa Kar
Tum Yaad Aate Ho
Ham To Ye Samajhe The Khatm Hai Afasaana
Uth Chuki Hai Mahafil Rah Gaya Viraana
Ham Ko Na Thi Lekin Ye Khabar
Khud Ham Kahenge Rah Rah Kar
Tum Yaad Aate Ho
Bechain Dil Khoi Si...
