Talk:Pan American-Grace Airways

Updates

6/26/19 I doubled the citations for the page to help make the "needs citation" box go away. I also cleaned up the images that were out of order and interfering with the text. I grouped them in a gallery under the fleet section. I uploaded a brochure from my collection. I disagree with the two boxes asking for more information in the destinations and fleet sections. Its pretty complete according to my records. It also resembles how many other airlines of this size and scope are laid out in wiki. Lastly, I think there should be a separation of the late 90's revival of the the name Panagra. My feeling is it should be moved to its own section below all the older Panagra information. I left it for now to see what others think. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BrianFrench1995 (talk • contribs) 01:41, 30 June 2019 (UTC)

Copyvio

Beginning with this edit, a substantial amount of text was imported from this website. The source has a clear copyright notice so I have reverted to the earlier version of the article. If it turns out that we're able to use the text, I recommend re-writing it so it is better suited for an encyclopedia rather than a memoir. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 00:21, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

Airplanes added to fleet with one removed

I have added a number of planes to the fleet section. My sources for this information are http://www.logbookmag.com/databases/articles.asp?ID=91&CatID=47 and http://www.aerobernie.bplaced.net/Panagra.html

I have also removed the Sikorsky S-42 from the fleet section because Panagra did not operate the S-42. The S-42s were operated by Pan Am from Miami to Panama where passengers and cargo were switched to Panagra Aircraft. For example S-38, DC-2 and DC-3s. Panagra did not fly north of Panama during the flying boat era. See: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pan_American-Grace_Airways and http://jpbtransconsulting.com/2014/01/25/the-pan-am-series-part-xxiii-panagra/ and http://webspace.webring.com/people/kp/panagra/flyingtheandes.htm Panagra did not operate north of Panama until after WW II. http://www.panam.org/about-pahf/paa-a-brief-history and https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pan_American-Grace_Airways and http://webspace.webring.com/people/kp/panagra/flyingtheandes.htm also see: Hager, Alice Rogers Wings over the Americas 1940 Mcmillan Company New York pages 40-41. Starting about 1947 Panagra did extend operations to MIA. See http://www.panamericangrace.com/panagras-first-dc-6-operations/

SCADTA reference

The reference that SCADTA had a near-monoply in the 1940s and 1950s is incorrect. SCADTA had become AVIANCA by those years. The Wikipedia articles on SCADTA and AVIANCA are correct. Pjrestrepo (talk) 23:31, 16 November 2024 (UTC)
