United Airlines was the brainchild of aviation pioneer William Boeing, who began the aviation business in 1916. His Boeing Airplane Company, as it was then called, achieved the first international mail delivery in 1919, and he subsequently founded United Aircraft Corp. in 1928. It was this UAC that acquired mail and passenger service operator Pacific Air Transport on January 1, 1928, then renamed Boeing Aircraft & Transport Co., merging with Pratt & Whitney Aircraft in early 1929 to form United Aircraft and Transport Corporation ( UATC).
