Provincial Airways
Provincial Airways was a 1930s British airline that was formed in 1933 to operate a service between Croydon and the South West of England, the routes were never a success and the company closed at the end of 1935. The airlines main operating base was Croydon Airport.
==History==
The company was formed on 12 October 1933 when it took over the assets of International Airlines Limited. International Airlines had attempted to operate a ''Western Air Express'' route to carry mail between Croydon, Southampton, Portsmouth and Plymouth using two Monospar ST-4s but the venture failed.〔
Provincial were to operate a similar route carrying mail, but in the end only two flights from Croydon to Plymouth with a stop at Southamton and return in November 1933 using De Havilland Fox Moths were carried out. In March 1934 they began a weekday service on the London to Plymouth〔"New Air Lines Opened." Times (England ) 20 Mar. 1934: 14. The Times Digital Archive. Web. 20 Sept. 2013.〕 route still using the Fox Moth which was replaced by the larger De Havilland Dragon in May. By 1935 they were flying a twice-daily service between Croydon and Penzance with stops at Portsmouth, Southampton, Bournemouth and Plymouth. In February a new route was started between Plymouth and Hull.〔"News in Brief." Times (England ) 26 Feb. 1935: 19. The Times Digital Archive.
