"Marland Oils" signs are often shown at Golden Wings Mid Continent airfields. Marland Oil Company was a major American oil company that manufactured and marketed gasoline, motor oils and other petroleum products. The company was founded in 1917 and by E. W. Marland, Ponca City, Oklahoma who was an oil exploration pioneer. By 1920 the company was estimated to control 10% of the world's oil production. Originally operating in Oklahoma, Marland Oil Co. expanded its operations to Texas, Colorado, California, Mexico, and even Central and South America. As said, Marland Oils are omnipresent in Golden Wings sceneries. Like here at KPNC Ponca City with a Lockheed Vega 5 and its 'Marland Oils' repaint done by the Ford-Tri-Motor team. More of the airfield itself Bernard

Good history of the Marland Oils company and nice shots of the Ponca City Airport and the Vega 5.
