GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Celebrate the story of Ozark Air Lines with an easygoing nod to the St. Louis carrier that linked Midwestern communities and grew into jet service. From its scheduled-service launch in 1950 to the arrival of DC-9s in 1966 and MD-80s in 1984, Ozark reflected the changing pace of American air travel. Its three-swallow identity and 1986 transition into TWA remain memorable to airline-history collectors. This polo shirt suits aviation enthusiasts, former travelers, and anyone who appreciates the heritage of a regional airline with a distinctive story.
Ozark Air Lines was incorporated in Missouri on September 1, 1943, but began scheduled airline service on September 26, 1950. Its launch followed the Civil Aeronautics Board’s revocation of Parks Air Lines’ route authority: Parks sold its airline operation to Ozark, which took over service from East St. Louis to Chicago via St. Louis. Early routes expanded from St. Louis to Chicago, Tulsa, and Memphis. St. Louis Lambert International Airport became Ozark’s main hub and headquarters. The airline grew from Douglas DC-3 service to turboprops and jets, introducing Douglas DC-9s in 1966 and adding MD-80s in 1984. A 1985 agreement with Air Midwest created the Ozark Midwest feeder operation. On March 1, 1986, Ozark and Trans World Airlines announced a purchase agreement; Ozark ceased to exist as an independent company on October 27, 1986, and its aircraft were repainted in TWA livery. TWA merged into American Airlines on December 1, 2001. A separate airline using the Ozark name began service in 2000 from Columbia, Missouri, and ceased operations the following year.
