Celebrate Aspen Airways and its distinctive place in regional aviation. Founded in 1952 as a flight department serving Aspen and Denver, the airline later operated from Hangar 5 at Stapleton and built its service around Convair turboprops. BAe 146 jets brought commercial jet service to Aspen in 1985, followed by a United Express affiliation. This shirt suits airline history enthusiasts, Colorado aviation fans, and collectors interested in the routes and partnerships that shaped regional flying.
Aspen Airways began in 1952 as the flight department of the Aspen Institute of Humanistic Studies, founded by Walter Paepcke to carry personnel between Aspen and Denver. Originally based in Aspen, Colorado, it later moved its headquarters to Hangar 5 at Stapleton International Airport in Denver. Its early aircraft included surplus Douglas DC-3s. After operating as an air taxi, the carrier received federal authority for the Aspen-Denver route in 1967. Purchased by J.W. "Bill" Ringsby in 1963, Aspen later built its service around Convair turboprops, especially the Convair 580. In the early 1980s it expanded into California, including Lake Tahoe service. In 1985, BAe 146 jets introduced commercial jet service to Aspen and opened additional routes from Denver. Aspen became a United Express affiliate in September 1986. Offered for sale in 1989, the airline was divided in 1990: Mesa Airlines acquired its Denver hub and routes other than Denver-Aspen, while Air Wisconsin Services acquired its common stock, Aspen routes, stations, ground equipment, and aircraft. Air Wisconsin operated Aspen Airways as a separate subsidiary until merging it into Air Wisconsin on April 3, 1991. The carrier ceased independent operations on April 1, 1990.
