U.S. Airways flew i t's last flight on Saturday, October 17, 2015 and completed integration with American Airlines. U.S Airways
itself was the result of a consolidation of five separate airlines operating under a total of ten separate names, depending upon
the year.
Equipment operated ranged from the Fairchild F-24 [Robinson] to the B-747. [America West] The final flight was an Airbus
A321 - which would have likely brought a tear to the eyes of the five original founders.
It's a bittersweet time for Aviation afficiandos, as the five originial carriers represented - and were proud of their regions - from
Indianapolis [Turner] to Albany [Mohawk] to the Carolinas. [Piedmont]
