Abstract:
Seven years ago Piedmont Airlines was a medium-sized regional carrier in the Southeast. Today, it is one of the country's major airlines with annual revenues exceeding $1 billion. Since the airlines deregulated in 1978, Piedmont's jet fleet has tripled in size, with a comparable expansion in employees and passengers. The company recently placed an order with Boeing for twenty-five of its 737-400 twinjets, with an option for thirty more, total cost $1.9 billion.

Abstract:
"Throughout its history, Winston Salem's Piedmont Airlines stayed one step ahead of the competition by coming up with innovative ways to satisfy its customers, like a one-of-a kind beverage that former passengers and employees still thirst for." From its beginnings in 1948, the airline always looked at ways to distinguish itself. Piedmont punch was introduced in October 1981. The 1989 merger with another airline was the beverage's demise. Chris Runge is curator and historian of the Piedmont Aviation Historical Society. A recipe of the original punch is included in the article.
