Unstable approach at 1,000 AGL always calls for an immediate go-around. Pan Am led the way in training to avoid crashes just like this after hard lessons learned in the 1970s. Poorly trained and sloppy always leads to disaster. The lessons must be learned. Lives are at stake.

Not to mention at 1000 feet agl and you’re unstable on the approach. That calls for an immediate go-around. Sloppy and poorly trained. Always the recipe for disaster.

Honestly, the best airplane and the best airline. Fly Pan Am.

We did this a few years ago. Help us decide. Which logo for our avatar is better. A. or B.? A. Is the original globe logo from 1958 and B. was the final logo when Pan Am ceased operations. Comment below.

Next year will be 100 years since Pan American World Airways flew its first flight. We will commemorate the history of the “World’s Most Experienced Airline” in all of 2027. Stay tuned!

The Boeing 707. To many, this was the zenith of the Jet Age. And of course, you had to fly Pan Am’s 707.

Your Clipper crew in 1935. These aviators trail-blazed the Pacific to make Pan American the first to cross the Pacific with commercial air service from Alameda, California to Manila, Philippines.

It did not get better than this in the late 1930s and early 1940s for Pan American.
A beautiful colorized photo of a Pan American Airways Boeing 314 at Pearl Harbor circa 1940.
