Airline is cleared for takeoff
Article Abstract:
Shuttle America is now cleared to offer scheduled passenger service. The start-up commuter airline passed finally its final hurdle with the Federal Aviation Administration this week and received its carrier operating certificate last friday, Nov. 6, 1998, during a ceremony held at Bradley International Airport in Windsor Locks, CT. As a result, Shuttle America is now poised to start offering its services on Nov. 20, 1998. Shuttle America's inaugural flight will be from New Castle County Airport to Hartford, CT, through a 50-seater plane called Dash-8-300. Shuttle America intends to start service to Buffalo, NY, on Nov. 24, 1998, while flights to Norfolk, VA, will begin on Dec. 18, 1998.
