Trivial question: Out of startup airlines that have actually gotten off the ground, what's been the one that lasted the shortest time?
 
Access Air in Des Moines went from Feb. 1999 to Nov. 1999. Two 737-200. Don't know if it's the shortest, however.
 
Independence Air ! gotta take this honnor hands down.

Oh wait I have to edit this as not to offend any of the Major guys as Indy was not a Major airline by any means and this post is on the Major airline boards.

You also might consider editing the word "honnor" to "honor" while you are at it.
 
Pro Air flew for a few months, maybe even a few years. I think they were based in Detroit City (hence their incredible success).

Wasn't there an "Air 1" that flew in the mid 80s for about two weeks? Otherwise, my bet would be on Legend.
