Prior Service
Capital, Eastern and Piedmont had flights until 1961; after that, just Piedmont and its successors. Nonstops may never have reached beyond Washington and Atlanta. By 1984 the only flights were props to Charlotte; US Airways Express carrier CCAir ended the Charlotte flights in January 2000 and Winston-Salem has not had airline flights since then. The airport maintains high volume and income with its private aircraft through Landmark Aviation

Famous quotes containing the words prior and/or service:
“A diff’rent cause, says Parson Sly,
The same effect may give:
Poor Lubin fears, that he shall die;
His wife, that he may live.”
—Matthew Prior (1664–1721)
“We could not help being struck by the seeming, though innocent, indifference of Nature to these men’s necessities, while elsewhere she was equally serving others. Like a true benefactress, the secret of her service is unchangeableness. Thus is the busiest merchant, though within sight of his Lowell, put to pilgrim’s shifts, and soon comes to staff and scrip and scallop-shell.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
