TWA: Remembering That Wonderful Airline
Published to mark the 80th anniversary of the founding of TWA’s predecessor, Western Air Express (WAE), in July 1925, this special publication combines a nostalgic tribute to ‘That Wonderful Airline’ plus incisive commentary on the controversial TWA 800 accident and the airline’s final days.
That Wonderful Airline offers an overview of the TWA airplane fleet over the past half-century, including some little-known types, and the more recent Trans World Express partners are not forgotten. TWA’s launch of the Douglas Commercial series is recounted, as are operations with the world’s first pressurized airliner (the Boeing 307 Stratoliner), the Lockheed Constellation, and at the Trans World Flight Center at Idlewild (JFK).
