- Central_Airlines abstract "Central Airlines was a regional airline (then called a "local service" airline) in Texas and Oklahoma from 1949 to 1967. Central was founded by Keith Kahle in 1944 to operate charter and fixed base services in Oklahoma. It did not begin scheduled flights until September 15, 1949, just before its original certification expired. Central was then headquartered at Meacham Field in Fort Worth, Texas. Backers and members of the board of directors initially included Ft. Worth oilman F. Kirk Johnson, former City Councilman R.E. Harding, Jr., Don Earhart and actor James Stewart; Stewart remained on the board for many years. Lamar Muse was president before going to Universal Airlines, Southwest Airlines and then founding Muse Air.Central started with a fleet of eleven Beechcraft Bonanza A35s, replacing them with Douglas DC-3s between November 1950 and May 1951. The DC-3s were reinforced by Convair 240s beginning in 1960; starting in 1965 the CV-240s were converted to Convair 600s as their piston engines were replaced with Rolls-Royce Dart turboprops.In August 1953, Central scheduled flights to 19 airports. Central's 1955 network blanketed Oklahoma and extended to Amarillo, Dallas-Fort Worth, Little Rock and Kansas City; in April 1957 it served 29 airports. When the airline merged into Frontier in October 1967, Central's network had 40 cities from Denver, Colorado, to St. Louis, Missouri, and south to Dallas and Ft. Worth, Texas.In 1961, the head office moved to Amon Carter Field (later renamed Greater Southwest International Airport) in Fort Worth.When it merged with Frontier Airlines on October 1, 1967, Central was operating Convair 600s and sixteen Douglas DC-3s. Central was planning to introduce Douglas DC-9-10 jets, and the airline ran an ad in the Official Airline Guide (OAG) announcing the upcoming DC-9 service. However, the DC-9 was never operated by Central due to the acquisition and merger. Frontier continued to operate Central's Convair 600 aircraft for a time but retired them in favor of the Convair 580 turboprop, which was already operated by Frontier.".
