GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Wear the story of a regional carrier whose routes linked communities across the Southeast. This Air Carolina Heavy Knit Quarter-Zip Sweatshirt draws on the Florence airline's transition from Florence Airlines in 1975 and its service connecting places such as Florence, Charlotte, Atlanta, Greenwood, and Anderson. Small propeller aircraft formed an important part of its identity, making the company a compelling subject for aviation enthusiasts. A considered choice for casual days, travel, or exploring local airline history.
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.
