I'm confused by your last post. I was of the understanding that palmair was no more. Thanks to Ryanair. And the only aircraft they had which was leased from Astraeus, went bust.

Are they coming back for 2013?

An interesting read to say the least. the word in question is either "which" or "what" .

I think your right james, although its seems weird to me to have a magazine named the "which magazine". Read that in the forum that Speedbird posted and it threw me off a couple of times( i thought they were asking a question as to WHICH magazine was it posted in )

Well if they could do all that with just one plane, sounds like to me they should have stayed around a little longer!

That right there is Pan Am level service! Boy what i wouldnt give for one flight on a 707 727 or 737 of that era! unfortunately i was born in 1986 (start of the Classics) and mostly flew on the -300's-400's and -500s along with some of Alaska and Southwest airlines NG's.

Glad I could provide some info for an interesting chat on the forum.

I have to agree that ” Which” is a strange name for a magazine but it was interesting to see such a small airline got such positive attention.

Luckily for me my interest in aviation started at an early age and that my first ever airplane ride was on my 16th birthday (1979) aboard a Pacific Western 737-200. Over the years I’ve had lots of flights on Pacific Western 737’s and right up to the late 90’s on board Westjet 737-200s.
Back in those days in Canada it was easy to get flightdeck visits during flight. I was lucky enough to have many jumpseat rides aboard Air Canada DC9-32’s including a few landings and a gate to gate flight in the cockpit.

I love the old birds and have a huge collection of old memorabilia from those extinct airlines and aircraft. Even had two flights to KSFO aboard CPAir DC8-43’s back in 1978.
If I had only known how rare those old birds would become I would have taken way more pictures.

AH the good old days of aviation.
I really miss them too.     

Thankfully there are some talented people like yourself to tackle a few liveries for the hobby.
Wish I had the software and talent to give it a try, there are a few classic Canadian, US and UK liveries I’d love to see come to life in FSX.

I have lots of pictures from within the Canadian/Air Canada hanger at CYVR for 737-200's that hopefully one day will join my FSX fleet.   

Looking forward to your work Eric.

I’ve been to Spokane a few times back in my younger days. Love Washington State, It’s like the British Columbia of the United States.
