The company's founder was Walter Herschel Beech. Beech and another local aviator named Lloyd Stearman decided to start their own business and formed the Travel Air Company. In 1925, Clyde Cessna and Beech started a partnership that was relatively short lived. Travel Air began as a very successful venture. The company's planes garnered numerous awards of their design and won many flight comepetitions- often when piloted by Walter Beech. Early designs were powered by Curtiss-Wright engines, marking the beginning of an important business relationship. However, a conflict arose between Beech and Cessna, the company's president. Although Travel Air was recording decent sales from its line of biplanes, Cessna was determined that the company should immediately begin work on a new single-wing design. Beech and Cessna split up when Cessna wanted to work on a new single wing airplane and Beech did not. Beech was invited to make Travel Air part of the powerful Curtiss-Wright Corp., which represented the surviving business interests of aviation pioneer Glenn Curtiss and the Wright Brothers. Travel Air merged with Curtiss-Wright in 1930 and as part of the deal, Beech was asked to serve as president of the company. The year also marked Beech's marriage to Olive Ann Mellor, who had been working as the office manager for Travel Air. Beech continued to work with her husband, now in the capacity of business advisor, at which she proved highly adept, having thoroughly learned about the aircraft industry. On November 29, 1950, Walter Beech died suddenly of a heart attack. He was succeeded by his wife, Olive Ann, who became one of the first female chief executives in American business.

286		"Bellanca Aircraft Corporation," "MN. 1960-70's. Specimen. Odd shs, common, red. Vignette of woman seated between 2 globes with small airplanes. In 1910, a young Sicilian named Giuseppe Mario Bellanca emigrated to the United States with dreams of building aircraft in the New World. Bellanca went on to form the Bellanca Aircraft Corporation late in 1927, backed by financing from a Delaware consortium. Orders for new aircraft started piling up quicker that they could be filled. The Bellanca model P-100 Airbus (later renamed the Aircruiser), capable of carrying 14-15 passengers, was introduced in 1930. The following year, pilot George Haldeman flew 4,400 miles (7,081 kilometers) in an Airbus, staying aloft for 35 hours. Only 23 P-100 Aircrusiers were built, largely because many in the aviation community were reluctant to buy an aircraft powered by a water-cooled engine. Bellanca's model CH-400, named Miss Veedol, made the first transpacific crossing in 1931. Powered by a 425-horsepower (317-kilowatt) Pratt & Whitney engine, Miss Veedol, with pilot Clyde Pangborn at the controls, flew 4,558 miles (7,335 kilometers) from Japan to Wenatchee, Washington, in 41 hours. For the next half-decade, Bellanca airplaces such as the Skyrocket established numerous world records for endourance and distance flying. A Bellanca Pathfinder made the seond transatlantic flight, flying from the United States in Spain and then on to Italy. In May 1931, a Bellanca Pacemaker, powered by an efficient diesel-fueled 225-horsepower (168-kilowatt) Packard engine, remained aloft for 84 hours 32 minutes without refueling-a duration record that would stand for 55 years until surpassed by the around-the-world flight of the Rutan Voyager in 1986! Two months later, another Bellanca Pacemaker named the Cape Cod flew non-stop across the Atlantic to Istanbul, Turkey, establishing yet another flight distance record of 5,012 miles (8,066 kilometers).
