R. V. Carleton (September 4, 1905 – February 10, 1987) who worked for Braniff International, the Dallas, Texas, based airline, for nearly 40 years, began as a line Captain and retired as Executive Vice President. As an aviator he pioneered South American airline routes and chaired the first worldwide symposium on Supersonic Transport aircraft. He was a celebrated figure in the field of aviation with an impressive list of accomplishments and contributions to the industry that he cherished. ==Early years==
Carleton was born on September 4, 1905, at Elk City in Beckham County, Oklahoma, West of Oklahoma City. His parents were Virgil Frances Carleton born February 5, 1875, in Russellville, Missouri, and Olga Mae Smallwood Carleton of Hardin, Ray County, Missouri, born on January 12, 1878. The family moved to nearby Clinton, Custer County, Oklahoma, in 1920, when R. V. was 14 years old. Throughout his life, Carleton used his initials R. V. as his nickname and stated that they stood for nothing. Young Carleton found a love for airplanes during his pre-school years when he would build model airplanes and dream about flying them one day. Far from a passing interest, Carleton's love for aviation was well known among his high school classmates and his class yearbook stated that he would be "up in the air."〔
