Airco

From Graces Guide

When Geoffrey de Havilland acquired the aircraft manufacturing parts of Aircraft Manufacturing Co (Airco) in 1920, to form his own company, he presumably kept the rights to the Airco name which was later re-used when a new consortium was formed.

1958 De Havilland, Hunting Aircraft and Fairey Aviation formed a new consortium, called Airco, for the production of the DH121 airliner[1]
