14th YEAR PACIFIC-ALASKA DIVISION
Pam American World Airways
PACmC-ALASKA DIVISION
CLIPPER
Read From California to Calcutta, From Alaska to Australia
17th YEAR PAA HAS FLOWN IN ALASKA
Vol. 5, NO. 11 PUBLISHED BY THE EMPLOYES OF PAN AMERICAN WORLD AIRWAYS June 16, 1949
VICE PRESIDENT
Employees of the Pacific-Alaska Division were proud and happy last week to learn of the promotion of their Division Manager, Captain Harold E. Gray, who was named a Vice President of Pan American. He will remain in San Francisco where he will continue in charge of the company’s Pacific operations.
The CAA, from March 1 to May 15, has made 100 Federal Aid Airport Grant offers involving more than $8,000,000 in Federal funds.
Real Estate Goes on Sale Just at at Equitime Point
Second Officer George Tondorf will stop at nothing in his efforts to sell his house. (See this week’s I WANNA column).
The first officer of an east-bound Clipper, some 45 minutes behind another San Francisco-bound Clipper, has just switched the radio receiver to VHF Channel as he approached the guard ship. He was just a little surprised to hear the following conversation:
“ . . . practically like in the movies. The yard’s in great shape. Everyone says the house is beautiful.”
“The price sounds a little high.”
“It’ll last forever. The contractor’s great-great-great-great-great grandfather handled that Colosseum job in Rome.”
“I don’t expect to live forever.”
Recognizing Tondorf as the aerial salesman working on the Air Force C-54 pilot, the first officer stopped the conversation when he chimed in with “It’s a lousy house. The best thing about it is the termites. There’s no water or electricity for miles, and right next door is a cattle ranch. If you pay him anymore than half what he asks you’re crazy.”
Canada, United States Add to Air Agreement
Canadian Carrier Will Soon Commerce Australia Service
A few changes have recently been incorporated into the U. S.-Canada bilateral air transport agreement that will affect Pan American.
Traffic rights were awarded at Honolulu for a Canadian carrier (presumably CPA) over a Canada-Australasia route. Canada asked for but was refused traffic stops at Boston and San Francisco.
Traffic rights were given the United States Government at Edmonton, Alberta, for use by Northwest on its Twin Cities-Orient service via Alaska, and for use by Western from Montana.
Of interest in the east will be the awarding to U. S. carriers of traffic rights at Gander. Canada was given a New York-Montreal non-stop which may permit effective New York-European service, and in addition was given a route through Tampa and St. Petersburg to the Bahamas and Caribbean points.
Under the blanket Two Freedom rights the Canadian carrier operating to Australasia will be able to make fuel stops only at Seattle, Portland, San Francisco or other West Coast cities.
Business Between Coast-Hawaii Shows Increase
Boom Laid To Inauguration Of Clipper America Service
Pan American Airways flew a total of 2775 passengers between California and Hawaii during April, an increase of 63 per cent over the March figure of 1701 passengers.
Much of the increase was laid to the inauguration of Clipper America service on April 1—the giant, double-decked Boeing strato-cruiser airliners which now make four round trips weekly between Hawaii and the cities of San Francisco and Los Angeles.
In April, Clipper America flights carried 1834 of the total passenger figure, and regular Sleeperette DC-4 type Clippers 941 of the total.
800 San Francisco Employees Receive Free Chest X-rays
Over 800 San Francisco employees of Pan American took advantage of the recent offer by the San Mateo County Tuberculosis Association to have their chest x-rayed free of charge. Expenses of operating the mobile unit are met through the sale of Christmas seals each year.
DECADE'S DONE
Receiving the congratulations of PAD Operations Manager G. F. Maxwell is Quinn Campbell, left, formerly Station Operations Manager at Auckland and presently in San Francisco preparing to leave for Midway. The occasion was Quinn’s completion of ten years with Pan American.
Passengers aboard Pan American Flight 82411 from Wake to Honolulu last month were afforded an unusual treat—a real Hawaiian style fish fry in flight. All this was possible through the enthusiasm of Paul Kaelemakule, PAA’s electrician on Wake Island whose hobby is cooking fillets.
Paul’s sumptuous fish banquets given in the past for flight crews and base personnel have caused quite a stir among fish gourmets, and more than a few demands for his recipe. As word of Paul’s delicacy got around, his quarters became more and more popular with PAA eaters.
Paul comes from an old family on the Island of Hawaii, where fillets of fish are more than just food. The recipe, passed down from Paul’s mother, requires a very special
Advertising Department Publicizes New Clipper
Booklet Describing Clipper America Offered to Employees
An interesting booklet, “Let’s Look at the Clipper America,” has been published by the Advertising Department in San Francisco. These have been sent to line stations and distributed at the San Francisco base, but many employees there missed receiving one; consequently provisions have been made to place a supply of the books on the counter of the Trading Post in the cafeteria.
The little book is full of pertinent information about the new type Clippers. It traces the development of the airplane, gives specific data on the engines and size of the plane, and answers questions about construction and performance of the airplane.
Stop by anytime and pick up one of these informative booklets and learn more about your company’s and the airline industry’s newest and finest airliner.
combination of ingredients and preparation of the fillets, and the rw-suit is something to delight the palate of the most choosy sea food fancier.
His enthusiasm reached a new high on May 11 when he noted that several proficient island Isaac Waltons had created a stockpile of fish in the locker.
He supervised the preparation of the meat himself, saw it stowed aboard, and thus became the instigator and chef of the first aerial Hawaiian fish fry ever served.
Some 600 acres and 200 buildings of the county-owned Blythe Air Base were leased recently by the Board of Supervisors of Riverside County for development of a housing and recreation project by private capital.
