"Small Cities 'to be Hurt Tremendously' by Airline Cuts" "Airline Subsidy Cuts Leave Three Towns Flightless" "No Convenient Route to Buffalo" -actual newspaper headlines, 2007-08 It wasn't always like this. At least, not during the era of the Local Service Airlines. From the 1950s through the mid-1980s, these feisty, colorful startups provided a level of service unheard of today, reaching small communities across America. They had to. Encouraged and supported by the Civil Aeronautics Board, these privately-owned companies were mandated to bring reliable scheduled airline transportation-plus airmail and small package service-to the citizens of places like Enid, Oklahoma; or Walla Walla, Washington; or Kokomo, Indiana-and other places ignored by the bigger and older airlines. The "locals" may have begun with second-hand propeller-driven equipment, like the legendary DC-3, but by the mid-60s they were operating turboprops and jets-just like the bigger airlines. And some of these Locals, especially Frontier and Ozark and Piedmont, eventually gave the big boys a run for their money. One Local, Allegheny, became today's US Airways. These truly were Airlines For the Rest of Us, and this is the story of how they began, how they grew, and why they disappeared.

The world's first scheduled air service began operation before World War I-with flying-boats in Florida. Thus to the United States goes the honor of pioneering air transport with heavier-than-air craft. In the early years following the Great War, the United States lagged behind Europe in developing commercial air services but did not organize & establish transcontinental air mail services. Slowly, however, from the mid-1920s, passenger airlines were built up, & to serve them the U.S. aircraft industry produced outstanding aircraft such as the Ford Tri-Motor, the Boeing 247 & the Douglas DC-3. These great airplanes & their successors established the United States as the leader in world air transport & led to today's domination of the world's air routes by such aircraft as the Boeing 747 & 707, the Douglas DC-8 & DC-10 & the Lockheed L-1011. Airlines of the United States since 1914 traces the whole story from those first tentative steps in 1914 up to the present when the U.S. air transport system still carries almost half of all the world's air passengers. Every development in airline progress is covered. There are chapters on the exploratory pioneer days before the Air Mail Act of 1925, the adventurous years of the late 1920s & early 1930s, the Air Mail Scandal of 1934, & the era of the DC-3, culminating in the Civil Aeronautics Act of 1938 & establishment of the basic framework of the airline industry as we know it today. There are chapters on all the main categories of present-day airlines, Trunks, Local Service, International, Supplemental, All-Cargo & of the U.S. overseas territories. The historical development of routes, fleets & fortunes of every airline, large or small--including the Commuter Airlines--are dealt with in a narrative which avoids excessive statistical detail. However, for reference purposes, there are numerous tables of data, supplemented by many maps & charts. The Essay on Airline Deregulation was written in 1982 & the conclusions are still relevant today. The interplay between individual initiative, government regulation & control, the role of factors such as competition, international policy & public opinion, all find a place in this airline story. Not least is the development of the modern airliner up to the 350-ton flying leviathans such as the Boeing 747. The progress & contribution made by the aircraft manufacturers in providing the tools of the airline trade is given full emphasis & illustrated by almost 500 photographs which alone would provide a fascinating story.
