David H. Stringer, the History Editor for AIRWAYS Magazine, has chronicled the story of commercial aviation with his airline history articles that have appeared in AIRWAYS over the course of two decades. Here, for the first time, is a compilation of those articles. Subjects O through W are presented in this third of three volumes. The individual histories of carriers such as Ozark Airlines, Southern Airways, United Airlines and Western Airlines are covered along with an in-depth look at Trans World Airlines (TWA) in the 1950s and 1960s. The importance of paper timetables, which served as an airline's primary advertising tool in the 1960s, is the topic of one chapter while the story of the first successful turboprop airliner, the Vickers Viscount, is presented in another. This well-illustrated volume is a must for anyone interested in the history of commercial aviation.

David H. Stringer has had a fascination with airlines since he took his first flights at age seven aboard a Southern Airways Douglas DC-3 and an Eastern Airlines Lockheed L-1049C "Super C" Constellation. His background includes a degree in history and political science from the University of Detroit (today's University of Detroit Mercy) followed by a 32-year career in the airline industry. His interest in airline history focuses primarily on the 20th Century and, in particular, the era before deregulation of the industry in the United States.David has contributed to AIRWAYS Magazine since 2006 and has served as the publication's History Editor since 2014. He is a member of the Editorial Board of The Aviation Historian (TAH), a British publication, and is author of the book "America's Local Service Airlines".
