In 1963 Captain Charles F. Blair, already a famed aviator, put $10,000 down on a Grumman Goose, hired five employees and started an airline. With that modest investment and a dream about convenient, economical downtown-to-downtown air service, Capt. Blair built Antilles Air Boats into the largest seaplane service in the world and the mainstay of inter-island air transportation for Virgin Islanders.

There are so many passengers and employees alike that continue to tell the stories of those incredible years.
