On 14 August 1932, the gliding school was opened in Pinosava, due to its position on the slopes of the Avala mountain. On the same day, Mrs. Srškić christened the first Yugoslav glider, naming it Orlić (eaglet). On 1 October 1933, additional hangar was added to the complex, and named Živko Jozanov after the student and gliding pioneer who was killed in accident.
