Take the story of Robertson Aircraft along for the day. Based at Lambert-St. Louis Flying Field, the company carried passengers and U.S. Air Mail, taught flying, and maintained and resold surplus aircraft. Its CAM-2 service to Chicago began in 1926, with Springfield and Peoria stops and Charles Lindbergh as chief pilot. This tumbler honors a busy chapter of St. Louis aviation and the early routes that connected Midwestern communities.
Robertson Aircraft Corporation was a post-World War I aviation services company based at Lambert-St. Louis Flying Field near St. Louis, Missouri. Founded and run by former U.S. Army aviators and brothers William B. Robertson and Frank H. Robertson, it carried passengers and U.S. Air Mail, taught flying, staged exhibition flights, and modified, rebuilt, and resold surplus military aircraft. It also operated facilities in Kansas City, San Antonio, Houston, New Orleans, and Fort Wayne. On April 15, 1926, the company began Contract Air Mail route CAM-2 between Lambert Field and Chicago, with stops in Springfield and Peoria, Illinois; Charles Lindbergh was its chief pilot. Passenger and express service followed, including flights on St. Louis-Chicago using Stout Ford Tri-Motors. William Robertson left in 1928 to form Curtiss-Robertson, a Curtiss-Wright division that produced aircraft including the Curtiss Robin, which Robertson Aircraft sold. During the Great Depression, its flight operations joined Universal Aviation with other carriers. Universal became part of The Aviation Corporation in 1930; constituent companies merged into American Airways in 1934, later American Airlines. Robertson also built WACO CG-4A-RO gliders under license. A 1943 demonstration-flight crash at Lambert Field killed all ten aboard, including company president William Robertson.
