My Neighbor Mary and a congratulations to the crew of 1549. from rand peck, a life aloft by Rand Peck
...North Beach Airport!!! This was truly exciting. Although I knew of it through my reading, I've never heard anyone refer to the North Beach Airport. Today, this celebrated airfield is commonly called LaGuardia Airport, officially named after the New York Mayor in 1947. She was 21 years old, assigned to Pan American's "Atlantic Division" and her first flight after training was a Bermuda trip. She recounted boarding her aircraft, a Boeing 314 Flying Boat at the Marine Air Terminal. I could hardly contain my excitement! I've explored all around this fabled little terminal building, written about it in Airways Magazine and walked down the dock that extends into Bowery Bay. But now, I'd actually met a Pan Am crew member who'd lived this history. Seven turbulent hours after leaving New York, she and her crew circled the pink sand beaches and splashed down in Bermuda. This was her one and only Flying Boat trip, as just a year later, Pan American terminated service with these historic airplanes. And Mary, who lives down the street from me, is the first Flying Boat crew member that I've ever met. ...
Tragic Trail from Ares by Guy Norris
... Together with friends and my son, we were on the first public hike organized by the Irvine Ranch Conversancy to the 1965 crash site of a US Air Force Boeing C-135A. The Stratolifter had been en-route from Fort Dix-McGuire AFB, NJ to Okinawa, Japan, via Honolulu, and was loaded down with 12 crew and 72 US Marines bound for the new war in Vietnam. The flight had departed the nearby MCAS El Toro, with men from the 3rd Div. USMC who were to swell the ranks of the growing US military presence in South Vietnam.
But, like the day when we visited the crash area, the weather was poor at El Toro on the night of 25 June. When the aircraft departed at 01:45 am from runway 34R, it was instantly swallowed up by thick fog and light drizzle. The crew, who were unfamiliar with El Toro airspace, was supposed to follow a procedural departure to the west. But instead of turning sharply to the left just after take-off, the aircraft flew straight ahead and, around 17 seconds into the flight, impacted just below the crest of the 1,300 ft tall Loma Ridge. ...
