Historical airline service

Several air carriers operating scheduled passenger flights served the airport over the years. In 1931, Wedell-Williams Air Service was operating a daily round trip flight on a New Orleans - Patterson - Beaumont - Houston routing flown with Lockheed Vega and Ryan Aeronautical "Cabin" aircraft.[2] Trans-Texas Airways (TTa) was serving the airport in 1961 with direct, no change of plane service operated on a twice daily basis with Douglas DC-3 aircraft to Dallas Love Field, Fort Worth and Shreveport via stops at Lafayette and Lake Charles as well as two daily nonstop DC-3 flights to New Orleans.[3][4] By 1963, Trans-Texas was operating daily round trip service flown with a Douglas DC-3 on a routing of New Orleans - Patterson - Lafayette - Lake Charles - Shreveport - Marshall, TX - Dallas Love Field as well as an additional daily nonstop Patterson - New Orleans DC-3 flight.[5][6] Trans-Texas was no longer serving the airport by 1966 and would subsequently change its name to Texas International Airlines, become an all-jet air carrier operating DC-9 twin jets and then eventually be merged into Continental Airlines.[7] During the mid 1970s, Bee Line, a small commuter air carrier based in the Houston area, was operating nonstop flights between Patterson and Houston Hobby Airport on the weekdays with small prop aircraft.[8] By 1978, Royale Airlines, a regional air carrier based in Louisiana, was operating direct one stop service to New Orleans via Houma, LA.[9]

gollark: There are even tons of copies on github, including one memorably added to the repository of DMCAs via a bug they won't patch.
gollark: And the Arch one and probably other distros', it's not going to vanish from anywhere else.
