TWA was the common initials of Trans World Airlines which ceased operations in 2001 when it merged with American. In the late '30's billionaire Howard Hughes purchased a 25% interest in the company, which later (1941) increased to controlling 78% interest. During and immediately after Hughes took control of the company, TWA rose to compete directly (in fact breaking the monopoly) with PanAm.
