I ran upon this slide which shows one of our 727’s landing in Miami.  Does anyone know what we were doing there?  I suspect it was a charter flight.  I’d bet it was a military charter.

       What information do you have about this Pacific Air Lines owned PBY parked at Rick’s Helicopter in SFO?

       Did you know our aircraft were chartered to transport prisoners?  Read Tom Bailey’s account of this unusual charter contract.

   Don Hargreaves from RDD sent me this picture of a Martin 404.  It says “Pacific Air Freighter” on the side.  Does anyone have any information about this?  What routes did it fly?  How long?

In the Memorabilia page there is a memo to all employees of Pacific Air Lines dated June 21, 67 stating that Pacific and West Coast were preparing to merge operations.  There was no mention of Bonanza.  What happened here?

   Send me your question or any interesting topic and I’ll post it for you.  We’ll see if other Pacific employees can give you some input.

       I show in our Schedules Page that on July 1, 1959 we started service to SXC (Catalina Island).  Does anyone have any information about this?  How long did we fly there?  Did we fly DC3’s, or Martins there?  Did we fly float planes into the harbor?  When did we terminate service?  I understand we sent agents […]

       You can click on these photos a couple of times to supersize them.   I was wondering what the difference was between the M202’s and M404’s.  They didn’t come into ACV very often when I was stationed there so I really don’t know.  They look the same to me.

Some of the dates in our “Airports Serviced” page are missing.  If you know any of these dates then please let us know.  Some “off the grid” stations include Catalina Island, Fort Bragg, Vallejo, Santa Cruz, Red Bluff, Yreka, & Colinga.

You can click on the picture a couple of times to see a supersized version.   I’ve been looking for a pic of this bird ever since PC. There is something I want you to see that used to scare the livin’ crap out of me that was peculiar to this and another M-404 we […]
