Samenvatting:

On December 4, 1991 one of the most famous airlines in aviation history ceased operation. The famous blue and white logo was grounded.

After pioneering most of the worlds air routes that are in use today, and introducing the travelling public to a variety of new aircraft, as well as introducing the world to the jet age, the "worlds most experienced airline" succumbed to the financial and regulatory pressures of the airline industry in this new age.

The following stories will recount some of the many experiences these employees faced in adjusting to life without Pan Am. To this day, the public cannot understand how these thousands of employees remain as close as family wherever they are in the world

On the following pages, many of the terrible predicaments that these employees faced will be recounted. Some are humorous some are sad and many show the resilience of the Pan Am family when faced with a crisis.
