The two organizations from which American Airlines was originated were Robertson Aircraft Corporation & Colonial Air Transport. The former was first created in Missouri in 1921, w/ both being merged in 1929 into holding company The Aviation Corporation. This, in turn, was made in 1930 into an operating company & rebranded as American Airways. In 1934, when new laws & attrition of mail contracts forced many airlines to reorganize, the corporation redid its routes into a connected system & was renamed American Airlines. Between 1970 & 2000, the company grew into being an international carrier, purchasing Trans World Airlines in 2001. Read more at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Airlines
