Inland Air Lines
formerly
Wyoming Air Service
USA
Wyoming Air Service was founded in May 1930 and started operating
between Denver and Great Falls, Montana,
in 1931, at first as the Wyoming-Montana Air Lines in cooperation with Border Airlines of
Great Falls.
When Border ceased operations in September of that year,
Wyoming Air Service concentrated on the Denver-Billings route.
It was
awarded mail contracts in 1934, for the Cheyenne-Billings and
Cheyenne-Pueblo routes.
The last one
had to be sold three years later to Varney Air Transport (Pueblo-Denver) and United Air Lines (Denver-Cheyenne).
After having expanded well into South Dakota, and to reflect that it was no
longer just a local Wyoming airline,
Wyoming Air Service changed its name to
Inland Air Lines in July 1938.
Western Air Lines
acquired the majority of
the stock in 1944, but Inland continued
as an
autonomous division until it finally disappeared into Western's system in
April 1952.
