NORTHWEST AIRLINES 1926-2010 ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ THE QUEEN OF THE SKIES Personal Retrospectives by Robert DuBert It's hard to believe that they are gone. Can it be possible that it was 50 years ago this September that this aircraft made its first public appearance? Are we really all so, ahem, elderly that we Photo: True Brand, courtesy Vincent Carrà remember 1968 as if it were yesterday? This plane had its origins in 1964, when Boeing began work on a proposal for the C-5A large military airlifter contract, and after Lockheed won that contest, Boeing considered a commercial passenger version as a means of salvaging the program. Urged on by Pan Am president Juan Trippe, Boeing in 1965 assigned a team headed by Chief Engineer Joe Sutter to design a large new airliner, although Boeing at the time was really more focused on its supersonic transport (SST) program. A launch customer order from Pan Am on April 13, 1966 for twenty five aircraft pushed Sutter's program into high gear, and in a truly herculian effort, Joe Sutter and his Boeing team, dubbed “The Incredibles,” brought the program from inception on paper to the public unveiling of a finished aircraft in the then unheard of time of 29 months. We're talking, of course, about the legendary and incomparable Boeing 747. THE ROLLOUT It was a bright, sunny morning on Monday, Sept.

  • PART 1A. 1949-1961 CHAPTER 1. Overcome with Yellowstone Fever
    1 PART 1A. 1949-1961 CHAPTER 1. Overcome with Yellowstone Fever; Preparation for a Career (1949-53) During my childhood and school years prior to college, I lived with my parents, George and Katherine, and my sister, Mary Joan (3 yrs younger), in Denver, Colorado. As a young boy, I had been to Rocky Mountain National Park (RMNP)(only a few hours drive from Denver) with my parents on a number of occasions. The area’s significance as a national park did not seem to be part of my parents' awareness, at least it never was expressed to me. My parents and grandparents all referred to such trips as going to "Estes," because the town of Estes Park was on the eastern border of the Park. Occasionally we went to Grand Lake, on the western border of the Park, where some relatives resided. My parents were largely urban-oriented people. Both had graduated from South High School in Denver, but the Depression precluded either from a university education. Immediately upon high school graduation (1929) my Dad went to work for the International Trust Company (a Denver bank) as a message runner. His father, Henry, was a teller at the same bank. My Dad's grandfather George Sr. had been a bank manager and the mayor in Idaho Springs, Colorado, where my Dad was born. Dad remained a bank employee until he retired in 1981. By that time, he was very upset by banking’s expansion into the stock market and other fields. He believed this was at the expense of traditional services to customers.

There is no other way to say it: It is virtually impossible to find another Scout resident camp which, for this same fee, provides anywhere as close to the balance of: a) an active Executive Board – and friends – who are pumping an additional $1million into the property over this past year; b) 3700+ acres of varied and carefully managed terrain which contains our own six mountain peaks, four swamps, three lakes, twelve miles of roadway, over twenty miles of hiking trails all which abuts something as beautiful as the pristine Belknap State Mountain Range in the gorgeous Lakes Region of New Hampshire; c) as qualified and committed a Staff to provide both Boy Scout and Venturing programs for eight solid program weeks each summer; d) as extensive and industry-leading an adult leader development program as can be found in the entire Northeast Region during a week of summer camp; e) a challenging program waiting for all age brackets of your Unit which always has new and rotating offerings so as to keep things fresh and new while also preserving that which you need and expect; f) a camp supported by as many dedicated and untiring volunteer committees who care for its tangible and ‘unseen’ needs without hesitation.

  • Hidden Valley New Birth of Freedom Council Boy Scouts of America
    HIDDEN VALLEY NEW BIRTH OF FREEDOM COUNCIL BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA CAMP STAFF GUIDE HIDDEN VALLEY STAFF GUIDE A WELCOME FROM THE COUNCIL DIRECTOR OF CAMPING Welcome to the camp staff! For those of you who are new to camp staff life, what a satisfying, formative, meaningful experience awaits you! This year, we have assembled a very well-qualified, capable and committed group of Scouts, Scouters and others from across the New Birth of Freedom Council and beyond. Upon surveying this fine group of people, one should be strongly prejudiced to believe that Hidden Valley's summer camping season this year will be its best camping season ever. Last summer, our staff and allied volunteer Scouters provided excellent camping experiences. Many people remarked that last summer was our best camping season in many years. Our challenge as a staff this year is to provide a camping opportunity that even tops that. Excellence must continue to be our watchword, as we go about our duties. We have the responsibility of making the outdoor adventure The Scout Handbook promises come brilliantly alive to each boy who passes through the main entrance to the camp. If we can work together, sharing our ideas, dreams and concerns, frankly, honestly and promptly, we'll have a superlative summer, we'll meet the challenge, and the Scouts for whose benefit we were selected will grow by leaps and bounds in character, personal fitness and cooperative, participating citizenship. Whether this season will be your first or fiftieth year in Scouting, you are about to assume a job unlike any other.
