PUBLISHED BY THE EMPLOYEES OF PAN AMERICAN WORLD AIRWAYS
San Francisco cargo rep Paul Harrup offers a snack to one of PAA’s customers who was awaiting his connecting American Airlines plane last month. This and three other penguins, formerly of the South Pole, arrived by Clipper from Tokyo, where they had been taken by a Japanese whaling ship. The birds were being shipped to the Chicago Zoological Society from the Ueno Zoological Gardens in Tokyo. Two of them were of the Emperor variety, like the one shown here, and two were of the s!m,aller Emilie breed. This one weighed 75 pounds and was well over three feet tall.

Like-Father-Like-Son Flight Engineer Hired
Jim Green Follows In Footsteps Of Former PAD Flight Engineer
The first second-generation flight enginer ever to be hired in the Pa-cific-Alaska Division has passed his final check and is now assigned in Honolulu.
He is Jim Green, whose dad, Carl, was with Pan American just a few months less than 20 years when he died in 1949. He had become a flight engineer in 1936, and served as chief flight engineer from 1938 to 1943.
Jim started to work for Pan American three years ago in Plane Service at San Francisco. He later transfered to the Engine Overhaul Shop. He started training as a flight engineer last November.
In Honolulu Jim will fly as assistant engineer between Honolulu and Seattle, Honolulu and Guam, and Honolulu and Nandi.
Moving to Honolulu with Jim are his wife, Jane, their two sons, Carl “Kelly,” age 7, Gerry, age 5, and a daughter, Suzie, age 3.
CAB Will Open Great Circle Route Hearing Next Tuesday

More than 70 per cent of all United States overseas travel moved by air in 1955, Juan T. Tripe, President of Pan American said last month in the company’s 28th annual report. Expenditures by travelers and tourists were by far the largest single item in the balance of international payments. American tourists alone spent one and a .half billion dollars which were utilized by friendly foreign nations to pay for 10 per cent of all American goods sold abroad during the
year, President Trippe said.
Reported net income of the company for 1955 after taxes is $10,-200,000 or $1.66 per share, as compared with $10,400,000 or $1.69 per share in 1954.
Total operating revenues reached an all time high of $238,000,000; passenger revenues were $180,000,-000, an increase of 21 per cent; cargo revenues were $22,800,000, an increase of 11 per cent; commercial revenue ton-miles were 22 per cent (Continued on Page 7)

Simulators Ordered For PAA's 707's and DC-8's
Pilot Training Aids To Arrive 6 Months Ahead Of Aircraft
PAA, first airline to buy jet transports, has placed an order for two electronic flight simulators for training of crews for its $269-mil-lion fleet of 48 Dduglas DC-8’s and Beoing 707’s, it was announced by Franklin Gledhill, PAA vice president, and Roy T. Hurley, chairman and president of the Curtiss-Wright corporation.
Ordered are one simulator for the DC-8 and one for the 707 from the Electronics Division of Curtiss-Wright in Carlstadt, N.Y., with an option on two additional DC-8 and three additional 707 simulators.
The two simulators will be delivered six months in advance of the delivery date of the actual jetliners whose flight characteristics they reproduce.
Thus the company will be able to train crews in jetliner flying well in advance.
Also it was announced that PAA is about to take delivery of another Curtiss-Wright simulator for the Douglas DC-7C, fastest, longest-range overseas airplane.
Simulators reproduce the crew cockpit of the actual airplane, com-( Continued on Page 7)
