What is your favorite Extinct airline, and why?

Mine is :
Pan American Airways

Both of my parents worked for Pan Am, until Delta screwed them Over

TWA, in 1958 I had a wonderful flight on a TWA Super Constellation from Los Angeles to Indianapolis. That was a great airplane, loved that flight. The only commercial flight I liked.

The only airline with a smile!
PSA an airline that flew mostly in the western US.
I flew them often, great looking stewies!

Like RadarMan, I say PSA. I used to watch the come and go from KMRY all the time.

Absolutely 100% I go along with Kurt and RadarMan. -PSA baby!! -Of all the 'extinct' airlines they were the most unique and happenin'. -I also flew PSA once my own self. KSFO > KSAN.

British Caledonian when it stood by itself was a great airline and the in-flight service was the best I've come across if you were flying with the family. I made many trips with them as the preferred airline. When B cal were "swallowed up" they tried to keep their standards and I think kept their branding for a while but sank under the new "favourite peoples airline" into the "sit'm down, throw them some food and then put the lights out" attitude that prevails on most intercon flights now. Have made several flights coast to coast in the USA but no airline stood out as being above the rest.

Anyone out there going to create a PSA aircraft, for FS2004?
It would be nice to fly that.

Mine's the Trump Shuttle.

They have quite a few now.

Danair

Why?

Because it was the 1st commercial flight I took
Without going to Airliners.net here is a pic (of a model)

Danair....used to be called Danair London, remember that? and Comets?

For me it's got to be Laker, good old Freddie

Mine has to be Wardair Canada Ltd.- they were based on great service,the cleanest aircraft and the best personel

My neighbors uncle used to fly for them, I always like that smile on their planes too.

Mine would be Air Bourbon

Because it had class and it was well and truly based on paradise. Mauritius and Reunion.

Does anyone know if there are Textures for the TrumpShuttle 727-200
out there or is anybody planning to do one for FS2004 or X


Regards;

Bob

Mine was Canadian Airlines...one of the largest-ever Canuck airlines and with a really interesting history about it (moreso than the gov't-backed Air Canada, although my favourite current jetliner is the Air Canada A340 - go figure). Some pics of a few 1/400 scale models in Canadi>n colours below.
