GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Carry a piece of American aviation history into everyday journeys. Founded as Western Air Express in 1925, the airline began with an airmail route connecting Salt Lake City and Los Angeles, then grew into a familiar name across the western United States and beyond. Its network reached destinations including Alaska, Hawaii, Canada, and Mexico, with Los Angeles and Salt Lake City among its major hubs. This backpack honors the story behind the Flying W identity and a company whose name became part of Delta in 1987.
Founded in 1925 by Harris Hanshue as Western Air Express, the airline began with a U.S. airmail contract linking Salt Lake City, Utah, and Los Angeles, California. Its first flight took place on April 17, 1926, and passenger service followed a month later. After a 1930 purchase of Standard Air Lines, Western Air Express joined Transcontinental Air Transport to form Transcontinental & Western Air; it separated in 1934 and returned to its earlier name. The company became Western Air Lines in 1941, later known as Western Airlines. Acquisitions and mergers expanded its network, including National Parks Airways in 1937, Inland Air Lines, whose operations were absorbed in 1952, and Pacific Northern Airlines in 1967. Based at Los Angeles International Airport, Western developed major hubs in Los Angeles and Salt Lake City, with Denver also a hub in earlier years. Its routes reached across the western United States, Alaska, Hawaii, Canada, Mexico and, for a time, London. Following a merger agreement with Delta Air Lines in 1986, Western became a Delta subsidiary that December. The Western brand and workforce were integrated into Delta on April 1, 1987; Delta retained the Los Angeles and Salt Lake City hubs.
