American Airlines branded its regional operations under the American Eagle name over 30 years ago.  Moreover, between 1998 and 2014, American Eagle operated as an airline with the call sign “Eagle Flight”.  Some contract carriers came and went, while others were absorbed by the parent company AMR Corporation, now part of the American Airlines Group as a result of the merger between American and US Airways.  On this Flashback Friday, we look back at the American Eagle brand since it was first introduced in late 1984.
 
One other carrier that I recall becoming part of Eagle, was Air Virginia. I worked their flights in my earlier years, and I believe that they were based out of LYH.

The thing that caused Delta to lose its mind and over pay for Comair and ASA.
