And since you're already here...  a bit of information about the "United States Overseas Airlines":
The airline was founded by a dentist, Dr. Ralph Cox who earned his pilot's license flying for the NAVY in WWII. Originally known as Ocean Air Tradeways, Dr. Cox changed the airline's name in 1950 to United States Overseas Airways. During the early 1950's USOA did not have scheduled flights. Instead, its non-schedule status allowed it to fly a number of both civilian and military operations - including aiding in transport during the Korean War, lending its support towards the creation of the Distant Early Warning (DEW) project, and operating flights worldwide for the Military Air Transport System (MATS). It operated this way for many years with 10 Douglas DC-4, and 3 DC-6 aircraft.   USOA began scheduled service in 1959 but could not compete with established airlines and had to cease operations in 1964.
