I also can remember flying with Woody Reynolds. 
He was a Challenger captain who left to become Vice 
President of operations for Bonanza Airlines. 
He was just about the same size I am, short. 
We walked out to board the airplane 
and one of the passengers that was standing there 
went back into the terminal building and turned his ticket in. 
He said he was not going to fly anywhere 
with those 'KIDS' doing the flying .

Woody was fling for Bonanza Airlines by Dec 1949 as the following air mail records indicate.
Bonanza purchased two DC-3's and on August 5, 1946 began scheduled intra-state air services 
between Las Vegas and Reno NV under its new name, Bonanza Air Lines 
while moving to a new home base at Alamo Field (now called McCarran International Airport). 
AM-105 was awarded to Bonanza and on December 20, 1949 
it began scheduled flight services between Reno NV and Phoenix AZ.
