Lewis B. Maytag, Jr. owned Florida and North America?

*decoding the above question*: Wha??? :)
The original airlines not the upstarts.
FL = Frontier Airlines
NA = National Airlines

The Maytag family sold their stock in March, 1962 to Goldfield Corp.
The next month, on April 26, Maytag bought controlling interest in National Airlines and became President/Chief Executive Officer the same day. At National, he moved up to Chairman on February 11, 1972. National was sold to PanAm in 1980 and Maytag's profit was enormous.
