  • Life and Times of Dinner
    Life & Times of Dinner Key Gateway to the Americas: The story of modern Miami is intertwined with visions of the city's potential as a link to places far away. Once upon a time, Miami itself was a place far away. One wag said: "If you own both Miami and Hell, live in Hell, and rent out Miami." But not everyone was as inclined to dismiss the place. Industrialist Henry Flagler, a Standard Oil partner of John D. Rockefeller's, saw potential in Aviation Cadets at Dinner Key (Courtesy: History Miami) connecting Southern Florida with points north, south, and east. He pushed his Florida East Coast Railroad down the Florida peninsula just before the turn of the 20th century. The first train entered Miami on April 13, 1896 - the tangible beginning of transportation links that would fuel Miami's future. Fifteen years after the first train, Miami saw its first plane - a Wright Brothers' exposition flight in 1911. The next year, aviation pioneer Glenn Curtiss opened a flying school. Miami was an excellent location for aviation - plenty of nice weather, and not a mountain in sight. With the coming of World War I, a sandy bit of dry land in Biscayne Bay known as Dinner Key became a focal point for naval aviation. Miamians regarded the small island - or key in the local parlance - as a nice place for a picnic, hence the name. The US Navy thought it would be a great place for a Naval Air Station. With some dredging and engineering, the island was converted to a peninsula, with room for hangars, shops, barracks and other accouterments necessary to the job of training aviators and mechanics.

Nicklas © Smithsonian Institution, 2003 NASM Archives Desind Collection 1997-0014 Herbert Stephen Desind Collection 109 Cubic Feet, 305 Boxes Biographical Note Herbert Stephen Desind was a Washington, DC area native born on January 15, 1945, raised in Silver Spring, Maryland and educated at the University of Maryland. He obtained his BA degree in Communications at Maryland in 1967, and began working in the local public schools as a science teacher. At the time of his death, in October 1992, he was a high school teacher and a freelance writer/lecturer on spaceflight. Desind also was an avid model rocketeer, specializing in using the Estes Cineroc, a model rocket with an 8mm movie camera mounted in the nose. To many members of the National Association of Rocketry (NAR), he was known as “Mr. Cineroc.” His extensive requests worldwide for information and photographs of rocketry programs even led to a visit from FBI agents who asked him about the nature of his activities. Mr. Desind used the collection to support his writings in NAR publications, and his building scale model rockets for NAR competitions. Desind also used the material in the classroom, and in promoting model rocket clubs to foster an interest in spaceflight among his students. Desind entered the NASA Teacher in Space program in 1985, but it is not clear how far along his submission rose in the selection process. He was not a semi-finalist, although he had a strong application.

    The History of Air Transport KOSTAS IATROU Dedicated to my wife Evgenia and my sons George and Yianni Copyright © 2020: Kostas Iatrou First Edition: July 2020 Published by: Hermes – Air Transport Organisation Graphic Design – Layout: Sophia Darviris Material (either in whole or in part) from this publication may not be published, photocopied, rewritten, transferred through any electronical or other means, without prior permission by the publisher. Preface ommercial aviation recently celebrated its first centennial. Over the more than 100 years since the first Ctake off, aviation has witnessed challenges and changes that have made it a critical component of mod- ern societies. Most importantly, air transport brings humans closer together, promoting peace and harmo- ny through connectivity and social exchange. A key role for Hermes Air Transport Organisation is to contribute to the development, progress and promo- tion of air transport at the global level. This would not be possible without knowing the history and evolu- tion of the industry. Once a luxury service, affordable to only a few, aviation has evolved to become accessible to billions of peo- ple. But how did this evolution occur? This book provides an updated timeline of the key moments of air transport. It is based on the first aviation history book Hermes published in 2014 in partnership with ICAO, ACI, CANSO & IATA. I would like to express my appreciation to Professor Martin Dresner, Chair of the Hermes Report Committee, for his important role in editing the contents of the book. I would also like to thank Hermes members and partners who have helped to make Hermes a key organisa- tion in the air transport field.

    Trans-Atlantic Services Airmails of Jamaica Introduction From the collection of Steve Jarvis FRPSL This frame contains a selection of airmail covers highlighting the variety of topics that encompass aerophilately: a) The introduction of the first services to the island, inbound and outbound: Jamaican mail services were not introduced until late 1930 due to contractual requirements of the Government. Eventually, the contract for inbound mail was awarded to Pan American Airways. However, the outbound mail contract was awarded to a local company (Caribbean Airways) who flew mail by a symbolic initial flight but operations were thereafter sub-contracted to Pan Am. Representative covers are shown featuring these first flights, together with initial difficulties in understanding the rates to be used. b) Services and Airmail Postage Rates to the United Kingdom: Rates to the UK changed frequently during the 1930s, generally reducing due to the improving technology but also affected by the GB£ to US$ exchange rate (as Pan Am had to be paid in US$). Step rates were complicated to calculate. Up to 1938 the rate consisted of two components: Surface plus Airmail. The former was charged per ounce but the latter was charged per half ounce. Up to 1939, transatlantic mail was flown to New York and then carried by sea. In 1939 an optional (higher rate) ‘All Air’ service was provided via New York . Post war, more direct flights were introduced but not without difficulties, as shown by the BSAA crash cover. c) Services and Airmail Postage Rates to Mainland Europe: Airmail covers from Jamaica to mainland Europe during the 1930s are not common.

These talks will cover topics ranging from the history of the com - pany; the history of the aircraft type; and its development; production methods and places; the history of the engine and its development. Also covered will be the challenges in maintaining and flying these classic aircraft in today’s environment; how the mechanics find the parts and how the pilots keep current on flying a 70 year old flying machine designed before the dawn of the jet age. This will be followed by details of how the aircraft is prepared for flight; how the en - gine is started; followed by an engine start and flight. During the proceedings, a draw will be conducted entitling the lucky winner to a flight in the aircraft being discussed (some conditions apply).

  • By Peter Leslie of His Father’S Remarkable Career Will Both Inform and Inspire You."
    This book about my father’s 42-year Pan Am career is compiled from the documents, memoirs, clippings, photos and mementos he left behind. In a sense it is the scrapbook he was too busy to get around to. My words are few, just factual history to tie together 200 plus quotes, letters, documents and photos. -- Peter Leslie, Director, Pan Am Historical Foundation Proceeds from the sale of this book will benefit the Pan Am Historical Foundation and its mission. John Leslie's Legacy Clipper One with FDR aboard alights alongside the USS Memphis on the Gambia River in Africa. Painting by Ian Marshall When John Leslie, in charge of President Roosevelt’s 1943 Pan Am Special Mission flight to the wartime Casablanca summit, named the presidential aircraft Clipper One, he started an American tradition. That legacy lives on today and the phrase Air Force One instantly symbolizes American prestige and power around the globe. 2 John Leslie was Pan Am’s first aeronautical engineer. Leslie designed this aircraft in 1927 at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Leslie was hired in 1929 and worked in Miami on Pan Am’s earliest aircraft: The Fokker F-10, the Sikorsky S-38, the Consolidated Commodore and this Sikorsky S-40 shown in a postcard sent to him by his niece in 1935. 3 Leslie was called the “Father of Long Range Cruising.” He tested his theories and techniques with his good friend Captain Ed Musick at the controls of a Sikorsky S-42. 4 In 1935 Leslie was transferred to San Francisco to prepare for the epic Pacific crossing flights.
