GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Celebrate the regional airline that linked Pacific Northwest communities with cities across the West. West Coast Airlines began scheduled service in 1946 with Douglas DC-3 Scenicliners, then made aviation history as the first U.S. local service airline to operate turbine airliners, introducing Fairchild F-27s in 1958. Later DC-9 service and the 1968 formation of Air West tell a story of changing aircraft and identities. A fitting choice for airline-history fans and aviation collectors.
Formed in 1941, West Coast Airlines was a federally certificated local service carrier headquartered in Seattle. It began scheduled passenger service in 1946 from Boeing Field, flying Douglas DC-3s marketed as Scenicliners, and acquired Empire Air Lines in 1952. Its network linked smaller communities in the Pacific Northwest with cities across Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Utah, Montana, and California, extending north to Calgary, Alberta. In 1958, West Coast became the first U.S. local service airline to operate turbine airliners, introducing Fairchild F-27s. Douglas DC-9 jets joined its fleet, while a planned order for Fairchild 228 jets did not lead to production. On July 1, 1968, West Coast merged with Pacific Air Lines and Bonanza Air Lines to form Air West; that carrier became Hughes Airwest in 1970. Hughes Airwest was acquired by Republic Airlines in 1980, Republic by Northwest Airlines in 1986, and the Delta-Northwest merger was completed in 2010 with Delta as the surviving carrier. A 2001 effort to revive the West Coast Airlines name ended in bankruptcy.
