Historical Note

Founded in 1939 as All American Aviation Company, the company originally flew air mail. In 1949, it changed its name to All American Airways and changed from air mail to regional passenger service. In 1953, the airline became Allegheny Airlines. In 1968, Lake Central Airlines merged into Allegheny, followed by Mohawk Airlines in 1972. In 1979, Allegheny Airlines became USAir and effectively ceased operations as a company, although the name was used until the late 1980s.
