Trans International Airlines (1985–1989)
While this second TIA ceased operations in 1989, it had a lasting impact on the US airline industry because a federal appeals court confirmed the government was not required to impose labor protective provisions (LPPs) in approving its acquisition by Transamerica Corporation.[3] See External links for a photo of a CAA Martin 2-0-2.CAI was one of a number of aviation enterprises of Wilbur Paris, including a fixed base operator (FBO).[6] In 1968 Transamerica Corporation bought supplemental air carrier Trans International Airlines from future billionaire Kirk Kerkorian.In 1984, Transamerica Corporation bought then-dormant CAI to revive the name Trans International Airlines to fly, initially, cargo, but eventually passenger charters as well.These were routine in the regulated era that ended in 1978, but the CAB declined to impose them, saying that, consistent with the desire of Congress in the 1978 Airline Deregulation Act, it intended to allow market forces to work.
