Ozark used Air Midwest in 1985-1986 to handle the shorter hops using the Fairchild Metro II turboprop flying with Ozark Midwest livery. The Metro has proven to be a safe, reliable, and efficient commuter aircraft. This is a pressurized aircraft that is capable of flying above bad weather. The Metro can trace its lineage back to the original Swearingen Merlin I executive transport. From the Merlin I Swearingen developed the turboprop powered II and III which were to form the basis of the new Metro commuter airliner. Just before the merger with TWA, Ozark added the Saab 340B for the Ozark Midwest route between St. Louis, and Peoria. |
