If you've been working for a while, you will probably get 6 months of benefits from the state. Then the tiers kick in, with extended benefits that are funded by the federal government. The tiers depend on the unemployment rate for the state. I've been unemployed for 14 months now, and am in Tier 2 (now that we didn't go over a fiscal cliff on Jan. 1). All the info you'll ever want to know is found on the unemployment forum, here: http://www.city-data.com/forum/unemployment/.
Trans World Airlines (TWA) was a major American airline from 1925 until 2001. It was originally formed as Transcontinental & Western Air to operate a transcontinental route from New York City to Los Angeles via St. Louis and Kansas City as well as other intermediate stops with Ford Trimotor aircraft.
The first is a 1934 Monocoupe D-145 near the Terminal 1 security checkpoint. Charles Lindbergh bought it in 1934 from the Lambert Aircraft Corporation and flew it as his personal plane. The second aircraft, a red Monocoupe 110 Special, manufactured in St. Louis in 1931, hangs in Terminal 2.WA's hub grew again in 1986 when the airline bought Ozark Airlines, which operated its hub from Lambert's Concourse B,C & D. In 1985, TWA had accounted for 56.6% of boardings at STL while Ozark accounted for 26.3%, so the merged carriers now controlled over 80% of the traffic.
