Gem State Airlines was founded in 1978 in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. It carried passengers for 11 months, from Dec1978 to Nov1979 and merged in Jan1980 with Air Pacific to become Golden Gate Airlines
[ – Air Pacific (i) was originally founded as Eureka Aero Industries on 02Jun1967, to provide passenger service from the Northern California coastal city of Eureka, to San Francisco via Redding, Chico and Sacramento using both Beech 18 and Cessna 402 aircraft. During the 1970s, Eureka Aero Industries changed its title to Eureka Aero Commuter to better reflect its status for passenger services. In early 1980, Justin Colin owner of Gem State Airlines in Idaho decided to purchase Air Pacific and merge the two airlines together hoping to expand services across the west. After flying for less then a year, Air Pacific was merged in to become the new Golden Gate Airlines on 01Mar1980. Ceased operations in 1981, shortly after Swift Aire Lines was merged in]
