Celebrate a distinctive chapter in regional aviation with this Air Carolina Embroidered Dad Cap Hat. The airline began in Florence, South Carolina, as Florence Airlines and built scheduled connections to Charlotte before adopting its new name in 1975. Its service reached communities across the Carolinas and Georgia, using aircraft suited to short regional routes. A relaxed choice for aviation fans, local history enthusiasts, and collectors who appreciate the identity and stories of smaller southeastern carriers.
Air Carolina began as Florence Airlines, a regional carrier based in Florence, South Carolina. The company was certified on December 5, 1967, with Sheffield P. Wilds as its first president. In 1973, it operated three daily scheduled passenger and cargo flights between Florence and Charlotte, North Carolina, using an Aero Commander 500B and two Piper Cherokee Sixes. A Piper Cherokee 140 was also used for pilot training between 1973 and 1976. By early 1975, William E. Smith was president, and the schedule had been reduced to twice-daily passenger service between Florence and Charlotte. On March 30, 1975, the airline adopted the Air Carolina name and served Atlanta, Greenwood and Anderson, as well as Charlotte, with Piper Navajo Chieftains, Britten-Norman Islanders and a Twin Otter. By 1981, passenger service linked Charlotte, Hickory, North Carolina, and Florence. The fleet then included several Piper types: Navajo Chieftains, a Navajo, an Aztec, a Seneca and a Lance. The airline was later absorbed by Atlantis Airlines in 1980, a date that precedes the 1981 service description in the article.
