Closing Thoughts 116 2 Part One United Airlines before the Deregulation Act of 1938 United Airlines officially began airline operations in 1926 as a mail carrier. It was also the first fare- paying airline to fly customers from coast to coast in the United States, and by 1930, had introduced the concept of an airline stewardess. The airline soon became one of the “Big Four” contenders in the U.S. and continues to be one of America’s major airlines. It was founded in Boise, Idaho. United Airlines was originally formed as a partnership between Boeing Airplane Company and Pratt & Whitney. It was overseen by the United Aircraft and Transport Corporation and United Air Lines was actually an operating division that was established on July 1, 1931. United’s slogan was the “World’s Largest Air Transport System”. The four transport divisions of the United Aircraft and Transportation Corporation had now become United Airlines. When the Air Mail Act of 1934 broke up all of the aviation holding companies in the United States, the United Aircraft and Transport Corporation was broken up into Boeing, United Aircraft and United Air Lines. It was at this time that United Airlines began offering coast-to-coast service from New York to San Francisco and Los Angeles. Within four months of the beginning coast-to-coast operations, United Air Lines was making as many as 11 round trips every day between Chicago and New York.

Myers et al.: Simulator Fidelity, Training Transfer, and the Role of Instructors On November 12, 2001, American Airlines Flight 587, an Airbus A300, departed from John F. Kennedy International Airport. Shortly after takeoff, the aircraft encountered wake turbulence from a preceding departing aircraft. The aircraft upset caused the copilot flying the aircraft to use excessive rudder input in both directions, over-stressing the rudder and causing it to depart the aircraft (NTSB, 2001; NTSB, 2004a; NTSB, 2004b). All 260 people on the aircraft and five people on the ground were killed and the aircraft was destroyed.
