About

Chalk’s Flying Service, which was offering flights from Miami to the Bahamas (ie. international, and in the Americas) ten months prior to this. Thoughts? Moonraker12 (talk) 18:57, 1 June 2021 (UTC)[reply

Seems like they mean it's the second oldest continuously running airline, or in other words it is the oldest airline after KLM Royal Dutch Airlines still running now (as Avianca after merging with SACO) Edy4gaona (talk) 16:20, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Name?

This is unclear. The company was the 'Colombian-German Air Transport Company'; so, were they offering a transatlantic service from Germany and Columbia? In 1919? Or does it mean they were a German company operating in Columbia, so felt they had to have the word German in the title? Anyone know? Moonraker12 (talk) 18:59, 1 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The latter, and its existence was terminated due to that very German involvement, which covered financing, equipment and flight crews. - NiD.29 (talk) 20:12, 10 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
