Complete the sentence about Philippine Airlines with the correct year: The airline was founded in ______ and is the oldest operating commercial airline in Asia.
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. 1941
Philippine Airlines is the flag carrier of the Philippines and the oldest operating commercial airline in Asia. It was founded in 1941, and its first flight took off on 15 March of that year from Manila to Baguio. The year 1966 is when it was privatized, not founded, and 1921 and 1971 do not fit with a first flight in 1941.
