West Coast
Airlines Douglas DC-3 N62373
(c/n 19212)
By 1960 the livery
had changed, as my shot above taken at Boeing Field, Seattle in 1961
shows. In 1952 West Coast
Airlines absorbed Empire
Air Lines, a Boise, Idaho based
Local Service carrier.
N62373 was one of the DC-3s acquired in the acquisition. This
merger gave
WCA routes extending into eastern Washington state through Spokane to
Couer d'Alene, Pocatello and
Boise, Idaho
