HISTORY The airline was established in 1947 as an all-cargo operator. Passenger services were adopted by the late 1970s and early 1980s , both on a Charter and regular scheduled service basis. Arrow Air had many passenger flights from JFK International Airport in New York and from Luis Munoz Marin International Airport in San Juan at the time, using Lockheed L-1011 as well as McDonnell Douglas DC-10 and DC-8 equipment at the time. During the 1990s , Arrow Air's management decided to return the airline to being an all-cargo operator once again. Formerly a subsidiary of International Air Leases, Air Arrow was acquired by Fine Air in 1999 , but it remained flying under the name Arrow Air. Fine Air also still operates under its own name. In January 2004 Arrow Air filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, but exited in June 2004 after a bankruptcy court approved its restructuring. Arrow Air has contracts with many toy airplane companies, such as Herpa Wings , to sell Model Airplane s. INCIDENTS & ACCIDENTS On .
