David H. Stringer, the History Editor for AIRWAYS Magazine, has chronicled the story of commercial aviation with his airline history articles that have appeared in AIRWAYS over the course of two decades. Here, for the first time, is a compilation of those articles. Subjects D through N are presented in this second of three volumes. Covering topics such as local airlines in the United States and their use of big airplanes to bring service to small cities, the story of flying freight aboard all-cargo carriers, and a look back at the non-scheduled airlines (non-skeds) that appeared after World War II, the individual histories of such carriers as Delta, Eastern, National, and Northwest are also included in Volume Two.
