SFO Museum's Instagram Bot"When introduced in 1949 by Pan American World Airways, the four-engine Boeing 377 Stratocruiser was considered one of the most luxurious long-range airliners. The aircraft was also very demanding to fly and maintain. It required a flight crew of five to operate and an exhaustive maintenance schedule. A Pan American Boeing 377 operations manual contained sections on cruise control, emergency procedures, operating procedures, performance, radio, systems, and design. “By the Book: Airliner Flight, Maintenance, and Training Manuals” has been extended until December. See the exhibition on display, pre-security, in the Aviation Museum and Library. Image: Pan American World Airways Boeing 377 Stratocruiser cockpit simulator, c. 1949.

SFO Museum's Instagram Bot"Happy New Year’s Eve! It’s already 2023 in the Republic of Kiribati, which is one of the first places on Earth to celebrate the new year. The thirty-two atolls that make up the country are stretched between the Coordinated Universal Time +12, +13, and +14 time zones. In 1939, the S.S. North Haven, operated by Pan American Airways, arrived on Canton Island, part of the Republic of Kiribati, to construct an airbase for Pan American, and by 1940, it was ready for operation. Pan American used Canton Island as a stop on its routes from California to Fiji and Auckland, New Zealand. Do you have anything fun planned this evening to ring in the new year?"

SFO Museum's Instagram Bot"Born #onthisday in 1906, Beverly Hills designer Don Loper (1906–1972) added airline stewardesses to the long list of stars wearing Don Loper originals. This Pan American World Airways wool suit from 1959 in Tunis Blue creates a fresh look with sharp, angular features exclaiming the aerodynamic mood of the exciting new jet age. The fitted jacket’s hourglass shape is emphasized by the slant of the triangular faux pocket flap, swept-back cuff, and partial peaked collar boldly traced by the blouse. A matching pencil skirt with a deep kick pleat completes the silhouette, while the hat’s forward fin and white piping punctuate the statement."

SFO Museum's Instagram Bot"#Onthisday in 1949, Pan American World Airways introduced the Boeing 377 into service on the densely traveled San Francisco to Honolulu route. The 377, named the #Stratocruiser, was Boeing's first post-war commercial aircraft and was designed as a luxurious, long-range commercial airliner. Its spacious cabin could accommodate up to 100 passengers, depending on the seating configuration. It also featured a lower deck lounge, complete with a cocktail bar. The cost per airplane was $1.2 million at the time, or nearly $17 million today. Did you ever fly on a #Stratocruiser? Image: Pan American World Airways, Boeing 377 Stratocruiser, 1949.
