Subsidiary (Compania Mexicana de Aviaclon, (CMA) was providing air services throughout Mexico. During 1930, the Colombian airline SCADTA (now AVIANCA), and NYRBA (New York, Rio, & Buenos Aires Airline) were acquired (bringing many qualified personnel, nearly 30 almost new multi-engined planes, and the Panair Do Brasil subsidiary).

Pan Am S-40 loading passengers 1931In 1931, Sikorsky S-40, four-engined flying boats (the first Clippers) opened a new route to Colombia, via Jamaica, and to Panama. Many of these routes were opened by Charles Lindbergh himself, and by then Hugo Leuteritz had completed a system-wide radio network, and equipped all aircraft with two-way radio. In 1932, new subsidiaries were opened in Alaska and Cuba.

Brief History The Pan Am most of us knew was born on 28 October 1927, when it began scheduled mail service between Key West and Havana… Pan Am Fokker F-7 General MAchado, October 1927 in Havana, CubaPassenger service started on 16 January 1928.

There were few aviation facilities in Latin America, only three weather stations and no aeronautical radio. A radio genius, Hugo Leuteritz joined the company in 1928, and Charles Lindbergh became the company’s Technical Director in 1929. An expansion of miraculous proportions then began, and within two years Pan American routes extended from Miami to Brazil and Buenos Aires, and from both Miami and Brownsville,Texas, via Central America to Panama, connecting with Pan American Grace Airways (Panagra), flying the west coast of South America as far as Chile and Argentina.

In 1933, CNAC, the China subsidiary was acquired, and began new coastal services. The next year a new subsidiary in Peru was formed, and the Mexico subsidiary opened service between Los Angeles and Mexico City. New Douglas DC-2’s, Lockheed Electras, and the famous Sikorsky S-42 four-engined flying boats all entered Latin American service that year. In 1935, the China Clipper opened trans-Pacific schedules to Manila, Electras opened new schedules in Alaska and Cuba, and DC-2s came to CNAC. Pan Am Sikorsky S-42 in flightIn 1937 Sikorsky S-42Bs surveyed the Atlantic routes, and opened Bermuda service from New York and Baltimore. Douglas DC-3’s entered Latin American service. In 1939, Boeing 314 Clippers entered Pacific service and opened Atlantic schedules to Europe. In 1940 the world’s first pressurized airliner, Boeing 307 Stratoliner brought new, fast service to Latin America, augmented by new Douglas DC-3As throughout Latin America, Alaska, and China. Early in 1941, new Africa and Air Ferry Divisions were opened to provide assistance to British forces in the Middle East. The flight training school in Miami began training navigators for U.S. and British air forces (training more than 5000 by 1944).

At the time of Pearl Harbor, Pan American operated on 88,478 total route miles serving 52 countries, and had 8,750 employees (including new Africa and Air Ferry divisions), with 162 aircraft, 192 radio/weather stations and 300 airports.

During the Second World War, Pan American operated many services for the military and other branches of the government, performing many heroic missions. CNAC (who had pioneered the “Hump” route in 1940/41) flew more than 20,000 Hump flights during the war.

In the postwar era, PAA re-opened its Pacific and Atlantic routes, using new long-range land planes for services to Africa, Europe, and Asia. On 17 June 1947, Juan Trippe realized perhaps his greatest dream, by opening new Round-the-World schedules.

New aircraft included the Constellations, Boeing 377 Stratocruiser, DC-6B, DC-7C (Seven Seas), then opened the new “”Jet Era” in October 1958. The B-747 opened a new “wide-body” era in 1970, with more comfort and efficiency. Internal German

Brand History

PAN AM

[1]

The magic era ended with the passing on of Juan Trippe in 1981, and a succession of managements were unable to regain profitability. The rapid rise of world terrorism, culminating in the tragedy of Lockerbie, was the final deathblow. All the treasures had been sold, many at bargain-basement prices-yet the deficits remained. The end came on December 4, 1991. The airline of many “firsts,” a world leader in technology and innovations, was gone, mourned by many across a world that will not see its like again.

Services helped lead to an economic boom in Western Europe. Technical assistance projects were undertaken to many countries, such as Afghanistan, Turkey, and Pakistan, bringing modem airlines into being in many countries. Like the Latin American subsidiaries and affiliates, these gave their hosts technical skills, and corporate structures providing travel capabilities, to the benefit of local citizens.

Pan Am’s return from these was a more technically advanced world, and additional traffic feeds for our main routes. A fair exchange, thought Mr. Trippe, and most of us would agree.

By the mid-1950s, major expansions were over, and efforts were concentrated on superior service and economy fares, while cargo services were improved and expanded. The 1970s soon brought major increases in worldwide fuel prices, and declining travel. followed by deregulation and huge increases in competition.

Despite Pan Am’s being a leader in low operating costs, deficits grew.

Logo Evolution Pan American’s first logo was an arrow piercing a bracketed shield with the letters ‘PAA’ enclosed. From the top of the shield, lines flowed towards the tail giving an impression of an arrow in express flight. In October 1930, [Chief Engineer] Andre Priester ordered a standard theme for all Pan American aircraft, a logo designed with a hemispheric globe underneath a half wing.

This logo eventually evolved into a series of three symbols, which were painted on the nose and near the tail of all its aircraft.

The first in the series showed the continents of North and South Americas in the center of the globe. In 1944, several changes were made by placing the letters “PAA” on the wing, incorporating grid lines, and rotating the globe to show portions of the western hemisphere. Later, the grid lines were removed.

Navy blue became the official color for aircraft livery.

Pan Am’s corporate name changed several times. In 1950, the company’s original name ‘Pan American Airways’ was changed to ‘Pan American World Airways.’ Then in 1972 the corporate name was changed again to the company’s popular nickname ‘Pan Am.’

You can't fly it anymore or see its famous logo at the airport, but the airline that came to symbolize the glamour of the heady early days of air travel is a hot commodity once again.

Pan American Airways—known to travelers around the world simply as Pan Am—may be heading to the small screen as the setting for a nighttime drama about flight attendants working for the iconic carrier in the 1960s, when flying was the domain of the rich and famous.

The characters are fictional, but "Pan Am" the series—a pilot for which has been ordered by ABC—will draw on the experiences of executive producer Nancy Hult Ganis, who was herself a stewardess for seven years. "It was the most amazing time of my life," Ganis said. "It was a great, fun job."

Her career started unexpectedly in 1968 when Ganis, then a 21-year-old student teacher in Detroit, walked past a Pan Am office and was intrigued by a poster that read, "Our stewardesses know their way around the world better than most people know their way around the block." On a whim, Ganis walked in and signed up for an interview. When she showed up at the appointed time the following week, she was shocked to see hundreds of women vying for the same job.

Looks were important, but the airline flew only international routes, so it also needed people who spoke a foreign language and could serve as its ambassadors to the world, she said.

Ganis, who studied French and traveled as a young girl, was a good match, and a few weeks later, she was invited to report for work in Miami. "I was only going to do it for a year, like everyone, but it was just too exciting," Ganis said. "It was in a time when very few people in the U.S. even had passports. So suddenly, it was just this exciting adventure, and I really wanted it."

Ganis flew all over the world, hopping from continent to continent while serving travelers in style. It was before the era of private jets, so Pan Am's customers included royalty, dignitaries and many, many celebrities. Ganis remembers seeing John Wayne, Eric Clapton, Andre Previn, and Sly and the Family Stone on her flights. She had lots of time off and free passes to fly anywhere she wanted, so she pored over maps to figure out where to go. To help pick a place, she would often simply ask herself: Where have I not been yet?

The show is already drawing comparisons to "Mad Men," another drama set in the 1960s, but Ganis calls it "Anti-Mad Men." The women in "Pan Am" decide not to confine themselves to a job in the secretarial pool but rather seek to break out of the confines of a misogynist society by going off to see the world, she said. The Hollywood Reporter reports that actress Christina Ricci is in talks to star in the project. If all goes well, the series will debut this fall, Ganis said.

But television is not the only place the Pan Am brand has popped up in the two decades since the once-great airline collapsed into bankruptcy. If you've never forgotten your first flight on Pan Am or were so enamored with the experience that you kept the drink stirrers with the famous logo on them from the trip, you can get your Pan Am fix online.

"It's a feel-good brand. Everybody remembers the glory days of travel in the jet age, when everything was innovative and exciting and brand new, and you dressed up to travel," said Stacy Beck, a spokeswoman for Pan Am Brands. The company runs an online store where you can buy bags, T-shirts, model planes and even cufflinks adorned with the Pan Am logo. The biggest seller is a replica of the classic blue and white bag the airline used to give out to passengers, Beck said.

Pan Am Brands is part of Pan Am Systems, a Nashua, New Hampshire, company that bought what was left of the airline in 1998. It now owns Pan Am Railways and other transportation-focused companies. It also licenses the famous name to projects such as the upcoming ABC series. The Pan Am store opened for business in 2007 after executives realized that there was still a lot of "passion and a love" for the brand, Beck said. Shoppers include young people who find the logo "hip and cool and retro," she added.

That's a lot of love for an out-of-business carrier, but as the U.S. Centennial of Flight Commission put it, "there is no airline more influential, important, and better known than Pan American Airways." The panel noted that when Stanley Kubrick produced "2001: A Space Odyssey," he envisioned Pan Am as the carrier that would take humans regularly into space.

But a recession, deregulation and massive financial losses forced the airline to shut down in 1991. The carrier also never recovered from the 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, that killed 270 people.

There were several attempts in later years to resurrect the airline, but none was successful. Asked whether there are any plans to try again, Pan Am Systems was tight-lipped. The company would say only that it is always "investigating opportunities to improve and expand the scope of its transportation holdings."

Pan Am's Historical Foundation 18 Juan Trippe had an affinity for nautical aspects of mid-nineteenth century clipper ships that were developed in the U.S. These ships were sleek and fast sailing vessels and acquired the name ‘Clipper’ from the way they ‘clipped-off’ their miles, dramatically reducing sailing times between distant ports of call. Sailing to Australia in 1854, Donald McKay’s ‘Sovereign of the Seas’ reported the highest rate of speed, 22 knots, ever achieved by a sailing ship. Clipper ships were built for seasonal trade, where early cargo delivery was paramount. These sleek vessels were ideally suited for low-volume, high profit goods, such as tea, spices, gold, opium from China and wool from Australia. Their cargoes could be spectacular in value.

In 1930, Trippe made a corporate decision that all Pan American aircraft would adopt a nautical theme. Airspeed would be calculated in knots, time in bells, aircraft interiors would be nautical and a crew’s tour of duty would be referred to as a watch. All company aircraft would be christened ‘Clippers.’ This tradition continued for the life of the company, with the brand name registered to ensure its exclusive use. On Columbus Day 1931, a Sikorsky S 40, was the first aircraft to bear the name

2017

‘Clipper’. It was christened ‘American Clipper’ by Mrs. Herbert Hoover, the President’s wife. Since the law of Prohibition (18th Amendment, later repealed) was in effect, a bottle of Caribbean Sea water was used for the christening instead of a bottle of champagne. Pan American Clippers, the ultimate in aviation technology, were the proud symbols of America’s ability to lead the world in the advancements of commercial aviation.

During this same era, André Priester ordered that cockpit crew members’ uniforms be changed from white trousers and dark blue coats to navy-blue serge uniforms, standard black neck ties and gold wings pinned on the breast of their jackets.

These uniforms changes were for all divisions as well as for certain ground personnel and included the subsidiary companies of Pan American. ” In the summer of 1932, a new uniform insignia was introduced along with standardized pay for all pilots and other employees. Captains received a flat salary of $600 dollar a month. Chief pilots received wings with three stars on a blue bar.

Senior pilots wore wings with two stars, co-pilots had one star and junior pilots had none. The title of captain was adopted and implied master of the ship. Originally, crew rank was not indicated on uniforms, but after WW II, four gold braided stripes were added to the sleeves of captain’s uniforms and ‘scrambled eggs’ were placed on hat bills. All other cockpit crew members wore three gold stripes and plain black billed hats.

Pan American cabin crews were traditionally male stewards or pursers, modeled in function and appearance after stewards of luxury ocean liners.

Their uniforms were white shirts, black neck ties, white waist-length jackets and black trousers. Their work was considered to be too arduous for women, but in 1944, this tradition changed.

Pan American hired its first seven stewardesses to fly in their Latin America Division from Miami. The following December, the Alaska Division hired one lady, Marcia Black. On September 15, 1945, the Atlantic Division hired a class of stewardesses to be trained for the Boeing 314 Atlantic service. In March 1946, the Pacific Division hired their first stewardesses.

Modifying the Logotype 26

The typeface of choice for the logotype is Atlas Grotesk Black.

However, the edges of the typeface were modified first, to fit the logo mark and, second, to give a friendlier feel because the typeface as it stands is too sharp for Pan Am's soul. The logomark was also kerned to give a visual balance among the letter-spacing.

The reason for choosing Atlas Grotesk is because it's a very well established typeface, extremely clean and legible yet still has character. The logotype shouldn't overpower the logomark, both should co-exist in harmony without having to fight for dominance and space.

All arrows lead to this round, wholesome meeting point, which is another way to Pan Am wants its people to feel included, united and equal.

Also, arrows from all angles lead to this point, which offers a sense of belonging and peace as if to say ' it doesn't matter where we come from, we are all the same.'

The shape symbolizes unity, wholeness and inclusion. It's also a less common shape than a circle.

It's edges symbolize a radius of 360Âş, which reflects all parts of the world.

They're also round meaning you will never get stuck while navigating that territory.

Captions [1] Notice the sharp corners on those letterforms, these are the ones that were modified.

[2] Even though the modification is slight, it makes a huge difference and reflects a totally different character for the logotype, it makes it inviting.

The arrows symbolize exchange, as well as directing the viewer to a certain place [i.e., meeting point].

Final Logo 28

This is the final logo design for the new face of Pan Am; elegant, simple, clean yet memorable. It communicates culture, exchange, unity and friendliness. Notice how all the arrows point at a small meeting circle represented through negative space; this is the all-inclusive Pan Am spirit.

Below are the typeface combinations to go with the new journey for Pan Am. Lab Grotesque will be used most of the time for its uniqueness, legibility, flexibility and simplicity. Chronicle, on the other hand, will be used for short and/or quite subheadings.

Pan [1]

Lab Grotesque

Conceptually, Lab Grotesque is built on the idea of round strokes straightening out towards the terminals. With that in mind, we made the choice of square or rounded dots possible through stylistic sets.

Lab Grotesque comes in five resolute weights, complete with italics. Lab is designed with and for Stockholm Design Lab, and now it’s available for everyone.

Chronicle was designed to work well under any conditions. It includes four different grades, which get progressively more robust while maintaining a common width. This allows different branches of a newspaper to choose the grade most suited to their printing press, without having to set any of the content from scratch .

The Pan Am Palette 36

As mentioned earlier, the new Pan Am is all about cultures and people and colors and adventures. We've looked at many traditional costumes and pattern and cloths while thinking of a new color palette and finally came to a conclusion we're quite happy with: 3 pop colors and a neutral one to go with. The purple symbolizes an elegant and all-inclusive diversity, while the orange represents the energy and positivity Pan Am want to spread across cultures.

The green is for prosperity, fulfillment and growth. The black though—which is actually a very dark purple—is a mediator to neutralize the saturation among the other colors. As a rule the purple, orange for the logo as well as the visual system in general. The black version of the logo is to be used for more formal interactions and communications. The green, however, has a much more constricted use and is to never be represented in the logo in any way, form or shape.

Main: this is the standard color palette for the logo and will be used often

Formal: this palette is for more formal communications

Reverse: this palette is for black and white communications and/or to be used on dark backgrounds

The new Pan Am photography is different from the previous one in a few ways: it's much more colorful, it encapsulates adventure and activity rather than empty spaces and, most of all, it's all about the people.

Pan Am of the past was about beautiful sceneries from the countries it flew to. However, the new direction of the brand is about cultures and diversity and bringing people together.
