The Pacific Aviation Museum in Pearl Harbor plans to open an exhibit on Pan American World Airways next month.
Artifacts and memorabilia from the airline's early years in 1930s and 1940s and from beginning of the jet age in the 1960s are expected to be featured in the displays.
Uniforms, original posters, signs, and navigation tools are among the items expected to be shown. The exhibit is designed to change and grow as more artifacts are contributed by friends of the now defunct airline.
The exhibit is scheduled to open on Oct. 22.
The Honolulu Community College website, PacificAerospace.org, says Pan Am flew first commercial flight from the mainland to Hawaii in April 1935. The M-130 Flying boat made the trip in 17 hours and 14 minutes.
