HISTORY OF
AIRLINES
Dat TIn

In December, 1949, the first part
of two merger plans got underway
when Hal S. Darr, president of
Monarch Airlines, bought controll-
ing interests in Challenger Air
lines. BY combining general office
and maintenance functi@ns, suffic-
lent ecoomics were affected to
strengthen both airlines. A few
months later, in the Spring of 1850,
additional approval was received
from the Civil AeronaUtics Board
to further merge Monarch and
Challenger with the routes of
Arizona Anyways. Out of this
merger was formed a new COM
pany, Frontier Airlines. On June
l, 1850, the new red and green
colors of Frontier Airlines took to
the air on an extensive north south
air operation between Montana
and Mexico to serve 40 towns and
cities in seven states in the Rocky
Mountain West and the Southwest.
Feverish oil activity in the Willis
ton Basin brought about the adj
dition of seven more cities in
Guiding Sidney, to Frontiers
routes to extend the airline into
eastern Montana and western
North Dakota between Billings
and Bismarck.
After two long years of drawn
out hearings and testimony before
the Civil Aeronautics Board in the
extensive Seven States Area Local
Service Case, Frontier Airlines
was awarded 25 new cities over
extensive routes to be operated
east and west across Nebraska
between Denver, Omaha and Kan
sas City and on a north south
route between Denver and Minot
via intermediate communities in
western Nebraska, South Dakota
and North Dakota. These new
routes were put into operation in
late 1858 and early 1859.
