Collett Everman Woolman (October 8, 1889 – September 11, 1966), commonly known as C.E.
Woolman, airline entrepreneur who led Delta Air Lines from its beginnings as a small, pioneering crop-dusting company to the Jet Age.
He was committed to customer service and the "Delta difference": "There is only about two percent difference between success and failure — and that two percent is the determination and singleness of purpose that makes us do things.
Without it, we are just another airline — with it, nothing can stop us."
