Southwest Air Fast Express ’30

Southwest Air Fast Express

Southwest Air Fast Express was founded by E.P. Halliburton beginning services between St Louis and Dallas in April 1929. Without an airmail contract the routes did not prove profitable enough even with the oil industry links. S.A.F.E. ceased operations before the end of ’30. The Halliburton oil businesses continue to be successful to this day.

The flights below came from the June ’30 S.A.F.E. timetable from www.timetableimages.com .

In ’30 S.A.F.E were operating the Ford Trimotor.
