    Airline History

     
    http://airlines.afriqonline.com/
    Information on 600 airlines, past and present.
    1/13/2003
    Considering the troubles United Air Lines and other carriers are experiencing, perhaps it's time for a little historical perspective. Airline History: The History of Commercial Aviation is a good reference for those needing information on airlines present and past—600 in all—starting from 1920. Remember SudFlug, the West German charter? Well, you can find out about it here. Photos of each airline's planes are included—a trip down memory lane for many of us older travelers. Categories include an alphabetical index of airlines, "Aircraft by Decade," and "Aircraft by Paper"—planes that never left the drawing board and prototypes that never made it into production—as well as features on U.S. and U.K. aviation history. A former commercial pilot runs the site.
