Talk:Western Airlines

Notes

I deleted the following from the article, since it seems irrelevant and potentially apocryphal:

"Today Western Airlines former aircraft are rumored to be used as shuttles for commuters to a top secret military base known as AREA 51."

What is the source of this rumor? And is there any evidence whatsoever to support it? If not, I don't think this should be included in an encylopedia article. Logawi 06:51, 1 November 2005 (UTC)

There is a private transportation company called EG&G operating old Boeing 737-200s, mostly out of Las Vegas. The operation is popularly referred to as "Janet" airlines (web searches will turn up a lot of info; surmise to say that they provide transportation to government employees.) Several of their aircraft are still listed as being registered to the USAF, and in fact, carried USAF markings in the past. At least two of Janet's airplanes were once flown by Western, but there is no other connection than that, other than similarity of the "livery," or paint job. Their use by EG&G comes after Western's demise. (Keith Elliott, Nov. 11, 2005)

Current Western

I have split this section off, as it is not actually a successor and not known as Western Airlines rather it is simply known as Western (per their website). Any objections just message me. I don't attempt to create controversy it just seems the best logical direction to go. --MJHankel 18:57, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

I support the split, and had been thinking it should happen at some point. -- Hawaiian717 19:39, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
