Introduce a new generation to Lake Central Airlines, an independent regional carrier whose story began in the postwar era. Founded as Turner Airlines in 1948, it started service as Lake Central in 1950 and connected communities from its Indianapolis base across the Midwest and eastern United States. In 1955, employees purchased 97.5 percent of the outstanding stock, an exceptional milestone in airline history. Its 1968 merger into Allegheny Airlines makes the name a distinctive choice for aviation-minded families and collectors sharing their interest in airline heritage.

Lake Central Airlines was a scheduled local service carrier serving locations across the Midwestern and eastern United States from 1950 until its merger into Allegheny Airlines in 1968. Its predecessor, Turner Airlines, was founded in 1948 and based at Weir Cook Airport in Indianapolis, Indiana, now Indianapolis International Airport. In the 1950s, Lake Central's network extended from Chicago to Pittsburgh. It served 21 airports in August 1953 and 39 by May 1968. In February 1955, it became the first employee-owned scheduled airline in the history of the air transport industry: 162 employees, 65 percent of the workforce, purchased 97.5 percent of the outstanding stock. Its aircraft included Douglas DC-3s, Convair 340s and 580s, Beechcraft Bonanzas, and Nord 262s. DC-3 service ended in 1967, and by spring 1968 its fleet consisted of Convair 580 and Nord 262 turboprops. On March 5, 1967, Flight 527 crashed near Marseilles, Ohio, killing all 38 passengers and crew. Effective July 1, 1968, Lake Central was acquired by and merged into Allegheny Airlines. Allegheny became USAir in 1979, then US Airways in 1997; American Airlines acquired US Airways through a merger in 2015.
