Uribe, October 2006). https://www.flickr.com/photos/sdasmarchives/sets/72157624565525530 Biographical / Historical Pacific Southwest Airlines (PSA) began operations on May 6, 1949 with a leased DC-3 that flew one weekly round trip from San Diego to Oakland via Burbank. Reservations were initially taken from a 6 foot by 12 foot war-surplus latrine that was refitted to serve as a ticket office. In 1951, PSA crossed the bay and began flying to San Francisco. In 1955, the airlines purchased two Douglas DC-4 aircraft from Capital Airlines and painted boxes around the windows to make the DC-4's resemble more advanced Douglas DC-6’s. During the 1960s, PSA operated Lockheed L-188 Electra aircraft on the San Diego-San Francisco route: these were replaced with Boeing 727 and Boeing 737 aircraft by the end of the decade. In the mid-1970s, PSA briefly operated Lockheed L-1011 aircraft before deeming them unprofitable and selling them off. PSA expanded its service to Sacramento, San Jose, Long Beach, and Ontario during this period and by 1980 was operating a hub at Los Angeles International Airport as well. After airline deregulation, California’s major intrastate airlines (PSA, Air California, Western Airlines, and United Airlines) were engaged in intense fare wars. PSA attempted to extend its route network beyond California with flights to Reno, Las Vegas, Salt Lake City, and Phoenix. The airline also introduced automated ticketing and check-in machines at several major airports, and briefly operated flights to Mexico. When PSA's plan to buy out the assets of Dallas-based Braniff International fell through, the airline expanded its route network northward to Washington, Oregon, and Idaho. PSA used a new fleet of BAe 146 regional jets to serve smaller airports on the West Coast, such as Eureka, California and Concord, California. In 1986, both Western and Air Cal were purchased by out-of-state airlines (Delta Air Lines and American Airlines respectively). An hour after the Air Cal deal was announced, PSA agreed to a merger with USAir, which was completed in 1987. PSA's final flight took place on April 8, 1988. The PSA route network slowly disintegrated within USAir and was completely gone by 1994: most of the former airline's assets were scrapped or moved to USAir's hubs on the East Coast. PSA's operations base at San Diego International Airport was gutted and later served as that airport's commuter terminal. The corporate evolution of Pacific Southwest Airlines was complex. In 1946, Kenneth Friedkin, the man behind PSA, operated a flight school in San Diego. Through a series of mergers and acquisitions, in 1949, the small flight school became Friedkin Aeronautics, Inc., a California Corporation, and Kenneth Friedkin created PSA as its airline division. The other original principals were Victor C. Lundy and Douglas T. Kelley. PSA became a corporation on August 18, 1949. Starting up an intrastate airline was an expensive proposition, and there were many loans provided by banks and the three principals throughout their tenure. In addition, during the period 1951 through 1960, all of the aircraft in the PSA fleet were owned by the three principals via closely-held corporations (The Giles Company, Redford, Inc., and Lew Ellen, Inc.), and leased to Friedkin Aeronautics, Inc. for use by PSA. These three corporations were wound up and dissolved on January 3, 1962. On March 17, 1962, Kenneth Friedkin died unexpectedly at age 47. His wife (Jean H. Friedkin) assumed his leadership role, along with their son, Thomas H. Friedkin, and the other original principals. Up until 1963, all of the corporate entities were closely-held corporations, but on February 11, 1963, the PSA directors and shareholders voted to place PSA shares on the public market. Unfortunately, the official corporate records in the SDASM archives end in early 1963, so there is no record of further corporate changes.

    David Neeleman

    David Neeleman David Neeleman is that rarest of entrepreneurs, a man who has created and launched four successful, independent airlines, including the USA’s JetBlue and Morris Air, Canada’s WestJet and Brazil’s Azul. Azul, just seven years old, has already boarded tens of millions of customers. Born in Brazil while his father was Reuter’s São Paulo Bureau Chief, David has always had a deep love for the country. After his family moved to Utah while he was still a child, David would return to Brazil many times throughout his life. A dual citizen, David today relishes the dream before him to make flying cheaper and easier for Brazilians, giving access to air travel for many who have never experienced the opportunity before. Azul serves more than 100 destinations with an operating fleet of more than 140 aircraft, including Brazilian-built Embraer E-190 and E-195 jets, and ATR-72s. Just as JetBlue in the US before it, Azul is the first airline in Latin America to offer LiveTV inflight TV programming via satellite. It has been named Best Low Cost Airline in South America for the last five years at the Skytrax World Airline Awards. In June 2015, it was announced that the Gateway consortium, led by David, had won the bidding to acquire a stake in Portugal’s national carrier TAP. Gateway’s investment represents 50% of the airline. With the new investment, TAP is taking delivery of A330s and inaugurated new daily service from both Boston’s Logan airport and New York’s John F Kennedy International in June and July, respectively.

    Across the Western Landscape: Priority Issues and Strategies for Western Forests

    Across the Western Landscape: Priority Issues and Strategies for Western Forests EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The forests of the West contain an incredible assemblage of resources. They cover approximately 365 million acres, 49 percent of the nation’s total forested area, and are managed by a diverse set of owners. Threats facing western forests affect all lands and all people, compromising the basic assets we need and often take for granted such as: clean air, abundant water, safe communities, open spaces, and economic opportunities. Cooperation and coordination across jurisdictional boundaries are needed to address these threats. The Western Forestry Leadership Coalition (WFLC) represents a unique partnership between state and federal government forestry leaders and supports a collaborative approach to sustainable forest management. All U.S. states and Affiliated Islands have completed assessments of their forest resources and developed strategies for the conservation, protection, About the Western Forestry and enhancement of those resources. These Statewide Forest Resource Leadership Coalition Assessments and Strategies (Forest Action Plans) provide a long-term roadmap The Western Forestry Leadership for forest restoration and management. Across the Western Landscape: Priority Coalition (WFLC) is a State and Issues and Strategies for Western Forests is a 23-page publication providing the Federal government partnership. highlights from a synthesis of the western states’ and Pacific Islands’ Forest The members of the coalition Action Plans. These highlights — summarized here — include priority issues, include: the 23 State and Pacific strategies to address them, and a Six-Point Plan for the future.

    Monthly Statistics Report To: Tom Jones, Aviation Director; Tim O’Krongley, Deputy Director From: Brian Pratte, Air Service Administrator Copies: San Antonio Regional Stakeholders Subject: July 2016 Monthly Statistics Date: August 26, 2016 SUMMARY Calendar year-to-date (CYTD) traffic continued its growth, up 0.56%, representing a total of 5,003,408 total passengers. This represents the largest CYTD traffic on record through July, the first time the total passenger count has exceeded 5 million in the first seven months of the year. The San Antonio International Airport served 802,345 total passengers in July 2016, a slight decrease of (0.9%) when compared to July 2015. The decrease must be viewed in context. In July 2015, the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventist Church was held in San Antonio. This convention, one of the largest conventions to be held in San Antonio, brought an estimated 65,000 attendees. Approximately 60% (~78,000) of those conventioneers arrived and departed via air travel. If last year’s convention were excluded from the year over year comparison, total passengers would have increased approximately 8.7%. Domestic traffic for the month was up 0.5%, while international traffic experienced a decline of (17.5%). Again, context is important. The rate of decline in international passengers has decreased and is in line with the year-over-year reduction in capacity. In October 2015, Southwest Airlines opened their new international terminal at Houston Hobby Airport. In order to expand international service at Hobby, and to maximize the available slots into Mexico City (MEX), the SAT-MEX flight was negatively impacted and eliminated.

    EPA Progress Report 2002: Pacific Southwest Region

    EPA Progress Report 2002 Pacific Southwest Region U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Pacific Southwest / Region 9 EPA–909–R–02–001 Dear Readers, Growing up in Southern California, I learned early in life about the human cost of an unhealthy environment. The brown cloud that covered the Los Angeles Basin for too many days each summer affected everyone who worked and played there. But over the years I’ve also watched the skies grow clearer and smog alerts become a thing of the past. In 2001, the Los Angeles area met national health standards nine out of every ten days — the cleanest year since smog measurements began over 40 years ago. While there is much more work to be done, we’ve come a long way. I am honored to introduce this EPA Progress Report, the first that we have issued since I joined EPA as Regional Administrator in October 2001. The past year’s accomplishments are full of promise for meeting the public health and environmental chal­ lenges we face in the Pacific Southwest, and I am eager to to continue our progress in this important mission. EPA’s Pacific Southwest Region is truly diverse, encompassing the states of Arizona, California, Hawaii and Nevada; 147 tribal nations and communities; and Pacific islands such as American Samoa, Guam, and the Northern Mariana Islands. The problems we confront here are complex, interconnected, and resistant to traditional solutions. As we move to meet these challenges, we are fortunate both in our own strengths and in the capacity and will of our partners — the states, tribes, industry and the environmental advocacy communities.

The first flights will operate between Charleston, SC, Tampa, FL and Hartford, CT, starting May 27, with remaining destinations to be added each week through July 22, 2021. Flights are now on sale at www.flybreeze.com and the Breeze app, starting at just $39* one way. Breeze is Mr Neeleman’s fifth airline start-up, after JetBlue, Brazil’s Azul, Canada’s WestJet, and Utah-based Morris Air, which was later purchased by Southwest Airlines. Headquartered in Salt Lake City, UT, Breeze will focus most flights from four main airports: Tampa, FL; Charleston, SC; New Orleans, LA; and Norfolk, VA. Joined by an experienced team of industry veterans, Mr Neeleman set out to build an airline that offers a great experience, with low fares and high flexibility: “Together, we created Breeze as a new airline merging technology with kindness. Breeze provides nonstop service between underserved routes across the U.S. at affordable fares. A staggering 95 percent of Breeze routes currently have no airline serving them nonstop.
