Add a reminder of classic regional aviation to your everyday workspace. Ransome Airlines began flying from Philadelphia in 1967, serving East Coast cities before its story expanded through partnerships with Allegheny, Delta, Pan Am and TWA. The airline’s changing identities reflect the many connections that shaped the commuter-airline era, from local routes to major hubs. This mouse pad makes a distinctive desk accent for aviation fans, airline-history collectors and anyone drawn to the story of an independent carrier with deep Philadelphia roots.
Ransome Airlines was founded by J. Dawson Ransome in 1967, with revenue flights beginning that March. Headquartered at Northeast Philadelphia Airport, it first served East Coast cities from Philadelphia to Norfolk with small Beechcraft Model 18 aircraft. In August 1970, it began operating as Allegheny Commuter, feeding flights to Allegheny Airlines’ Pittsburgh hub while retaining a northeastern point-to-point network. That partnership ended June 1, 1982, and Ransome resumed service under its own name. A 1984 agreement with Delta Air Lines brought the Delta Connection identity. Pan American World Airways acquired the airline in June 1987, renamed it Pan Am Express, and expanded service to include Berlin Tegel, New York, Miami and Los Angeles. After Pan American’s collapse, Trans World Airlines bought the company on December 4, 1991, and renamed it Trans World Express. Its European and Miami networks were discontinued, and JFK became its sole hub. The airline ended operations on November 6, 1995, citing lack of profitability. Trans States Airlines took over its JFK routes, while most of its 11 ATR 42 aircraft went to Mahalo Air.
