The Columbia
Aircraft Company was formed (1929?) by Charles Levine, Giuseppe Bellanca
and Clarence Chamberlain to acquire the rights to a Wright Aircraft
designed by Bellanca--the W.B.2.
During World War II, Columbia Aircraft produced Grumman J2Fs for the
U.S. Navy. The company was acquired by Commonwealth Aircraft
of Kansas City in 1946.
There was also a Columbia
Aircraft from 2005-2007.
