Mountain West Airlines-Idaho {{airline codes|FX}} was a short-lived commuter airline based in Boise, Idaho. Its motto was "Nobody knows the Mountain West like we do!"

History

Mountain West's first flight was on January 29, 1979[1] with its flights continuing until the service termination on March 5, 1981.[2] Its last published timetable was February 14, 1981.

Cities served at various times were Boise; Pocatello; Twin Falls, Idaho; Idaho Falls; Sun Valley, Idaho; Lewiston, Idaho and Coeur d'Alene, Idaho; Reno, Nevada; Salt Lake City, Utah; Rock Springs, Wyoming and Butte, Montana.

In Idaho, its main competitors were Gem State Airlines, Cascade Airways, and to a lesser extent Hughes Airwest (later Republic Airlines). (Horizon Air entered service in 1981.)

Services to Lewiston and Coeur d'Alene were undertaken from December 1980 after Gem State had abandoned its Idaho services and relocated to California. Service to Butte was started from December 1980 after Cascade Airways discontinued the route.

Mountain West filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in March 1981 and did not re-emerge.[3]

Fleet

Mountain West operated Embraer EMB 110 Bandeirante commuter turboprops in scheduled passenger service[4] and occasionally Piper PA-31 Navajo prop aircraft for both passenger and freight runs.[5][6]
