Pan Am Jumbo Jet at John F. Kennedy Airport 05/1973

from U.S. National Archives

    This is Pan American Boeing 707-321, N791PA (c/n 18715/364), Jet Clipper Fidelity. Clipper Fidelity would continue in operation with Pan Am until the late 1970s, when it was sold to Maverick (under the same registration), and then Turkish Airlines Cargo (THY Cargo) for conversion and use as a freighter (TC-JCC). After THY, it would pass to Bosphorus Air Transport (BHT - Bogazici Hava Tasimaciligi), before going to Golden Star Air Cargo in January 1992 (ST-ALX). Sadly, while flying for Golden Star Air Cargo, this aircraft crashed on Mt. Hymettus (killing all seven on board) while on approach to Athens, Greece (ATH) in March 1992.

    It's not a jumbo. It's a 707-321C

Interior view of Sikorsky S-42 plane: Miami, Florida

from Florida Memory

  • Colin Howell said:
    For those who care about details, the Florida Memory site has reidentified this as the interior of a Sikorsky S-42, which was a few years newer than the S-40, and has re-dated the photo to circa 1934. The windows seem to be the telltale feature--the closely spaced porthole-shaped windows here are distinctive to the S-42. Most of the S-40's windows were rectangular, and those that were porthole-shaped were spaced much more widely.
