Amarillo Woman Joins Flight Scheduling At TWA
Dorothea Dee Williams, a former Amarillo resident, is the only woman among TWA schedulers overseeing 122 daily flights on transcontinental routes. The job blends complex planning with timing, maintenance, crew, and connections, as she helped finalize winter schedules and integrate new Martin twins and Constellations. Williams began at TWA in 1943, moving from passenger service in Amarillo to schedules, later relocating from Kansas City to New York.
