Welcome!
Yes, welcome one and all to TWAHistory.com!
I’ve been wanting to setup a site like this for awhile. A place that people can come to read and see some of the things that made TWA a great airline.
My father worked for TWA for over 30 years as ‘ramp-rat‘ at both San Francisco (SFO) and St. Louis (STL).
I had a lot of memories of flights on TWA. My favorite? Any flight in first on the L-1011. Nice and quiet, with the great seats.
Of course, many memories of the St. Louis hub. Including spending the night in the terminal, after unsucessfully trying to non-rev to San Francisco on every flight. The last flight to SFO (ironically, an L1011), we were bumped. So spend the night in St. Louis, we did. Good times.
Over time, I’ll be showing a small part of what I have that I’ve collected over the years from TWA. But we also need you. I’m hoping people out there also have pieces of TWA history that they’d like to share with the rest of the world.
If you have anything you’d like to share, please email me at comments@twahistory.com.
Enjoy the Flight!
