    Dreams and Nostalgia!
  

*by J***E on Reviewed in the United States on August 27, 2015*

Romantics, dreamers and world travelers on Pan Am will love this book. In the mid 1950's as an impressionable teenager in a Texas rural home, before we had a television set, my primary source for dreaming of future world travel was our weekly issue of the legendary "Life" magazine and it's regular advertising pages by Pan Am. There were also the occasional news pieces related to air travel. In July 1968, after six years of college and a little more than one year of employment in my first professional position and several years of consideration and planning, my Mother, a dear Aunt and I embarked on an emotional journey to the "Old Country" to meet family in Norway for the first time. After a noon time departure from Dallas to New York on Amercan Airlines our evening flight from New York's Idlewild Airport to Oslo was on Pan Am's Clipper Fleetwing, B707-321, N717PA, delivered 1/9/59. I still remember the Blue Diamond "Smokehouse" almonds served with cocktails and I keep those almonds in my kitchen pantry even today. Two years later, in July 1970 Braniff Airways and Pan Am were operating an interchange flight; one plane service with a Pan Am aircraft and a Braniff crew from Dallas to Chicago, then Pan Am crew from Chicago to Brussels. This flight from Dallas to Brussels via Chicago had a technical stop at Shannon, Ireland. I took my Dad on a trip to Europe, his first since 1917 as a young United States Army officer. His return flight some three weeks later; FBU (OSL) -LHR-ORD-DAL-ACT, was a thrill of his lifetime, departing Oslo shortly after sunrise and arriving ACT, Waco, Texas right at sundown. And his LHR-ORD segment was on a new Pan Am Boeing 747-100. Some two years later, I was now living in Houston, Texas and I took the Pan Am flight to Mexico City with a dear friend on a trip to Taxco, Mexico. In the late 1970's Pan Am's flight from Mexico City to New York with an intermediate stop in Houston was allowed to carry passengers from Houston to New York. I now had a new position at a Bank in Houston and I worked with a particular Bank customer who required that I travel to New York once every three months. Further this customer specified that those working on his behalf travel First Class. Preparing for this first trip to New York in that capacity, a world traveler friend told me to order a Campari and Soda once I was in my seat in First Class and that if I was served what I had ordered, I would know indeed that I was traveling First Class. I did and was served! There may be some airlines today that approach the service and sophistication offered by Pan Am in those earlier years of air travel, but, there was just something that set Pan Am apart that will probably never be equaled. This beautiful book restores and rejuvenates those memories. The legendary visionary Juan Trippe, founder of Pan Am, had stepped down from his Chairmanship in 1968. None of his several successors possessed all of the necessary qualities to successfully manage an airline. Further, United States government regulatory ineptitude and political partisanship, i.e. granting international air routes to formerly domestic carriers while at the same time denying Pan Am domestic feeder routes accelerated the decline of Pan Am.  The 1988 Lockerbie Pan Am 747 bombing was the final straw. Pan Am's bookings never recovered from the widely publicized images of the 747's pieces on the ground in Scotland. Bankruptcy was finally declared on January 8, 1991 and liquidation was declared on December 4, 1991.

    Pan Am, An Aviation Legend---a review---
  

*by S***D on Reviewed in the United States on January 12, 2000*

Pan Am, An Aviation Legend is a must for anyone who considers herself or himself a romantic and a traveler by air, in the 20th century.The book is loaded with vintage photos of early aircraft landing in the tropics, of  founder Juan Trippe and longtime Pan Am advisor, Charles Lindberg, as well  as art deco brochures and jet age memorabilia.  The juxtaposition of  fabulous pictures, creative and original advertising art and lucid prose  makes this book stand out in its genre of coffee table books.The  author captures with great style the legend of  Pan Am from the heroic  pilots and their engineering feats (e.g. the first crossing of the Pacific  Ocean) to the best flight attendants in the world.  Anyone who traveled  internationally after World War II will remember how wonderful it was to be  served by the elite of the airline industry.If you miss the romance of  traveling to far away places, this is the book for you.  Pan Am, An  Aviation Legend faithfully salutes our memory of Pan American World Airways  as the airline that with panache transported us abroad.Whether you are  American or European or Asian or South American or African my guess is that  your experience with this book about Panamerican World Airways ("The  World's Most Experienced Airline") will be one of nostalgia.  Pan Am  brought us together.  It truly contributed to making the world a smaller  place.We the extended Pan Am family, employees and passengers will  revere this book as a fitting tribute to Pan Am's pioneering spirit.Pan Am, An Aviation Legend will be on most prominent display in the home  of all of us.
