Fero Griglák hral na prvú gitaru na ďalšiu hral Peter Peteraj, Pavol Kozma na bicie a Martin Matyáš na basovú gitaru a Paľo spieval. Kapela po muzikantskej stránke bežala výborne, avšak stroskotala na organizačno-produkčnej stránke. V rozhlase sú tri alebo štyri pesničky Spočítané máš, ktorá bola dokonca i v Triangli a Výpravca vtákov, ktorá sa dostala do hitparády 5 x P a ešte Majiteľ súkromných vzbúr. Textárom Avionu bol Daniel Hevier. Avion fungoval asi rok a potom sa rozpadol. História skupiny Avion mala krátke trvanie, Kozma odišiel do USA, kde študoval na Berklee School Of Music v Bostone, Habera odišiel spievať k martinskej kapele Team a Griglák začal hrať s bratislavskou hardrockovou formáciou Pressburg, ktorá sa po tragickej smrti jej speváka, Karola Vilčeka rozpadla.
