Book Description
KENNEDY'S HAWAIIAN AIR: history of the islands' first airline. Conceived in 1929 by Stanley C. Kennedy, Sr., the book reveals the challenges, opposition to & early development of inter-island service. It started with two Sikorsky S-38 amphibians; in 1935 the Sikorsky S-43, a larger & faster amphibian was added. In mid-1941; Kennedy bought three new Douglas DC-3 aircraft. The company name became Hawaiian Airlines. The Japanese Pearl Harbor attack damaged the company's aircraft. Surface shipping ceased between the islands. HAL began the nation's first air cargo service. Postwar competition for passengers began, causing HAL political & financial stress. Since 1934 Kennedy had sought to fly overseas, persisting in an effort that never ceased. At age 65 Kennedy chose Arthur Lewis, a mainland airline executive, to manage HAL. He remained Kennedy Board chairman until Honolulu entrepreneur J.H. Magoon bought majority control in December 1963. HAL bought a jet aircraft (DC-9) in 1966, & acquired more & larger models until 1982, selling the DC-3 & jetprop Convair 640 aircraft. In 1982, HAL began Pacific service using DC-8 aircraft. The Lockheed L1011 aircraft was used in daily service to west coast cities starting in 1985, and then added to South Pacific routes. Poor management resulted in serious losses & HAL filing for bankruptcy under Chapter 11. By 1994, free of Chapter 11 without a shutdown of service, Magoon sold out. New management striving to keep the airline viable. Order the book from Olomana Pub. ($11ppd), 1605 Uluamahi, Kailua, HI 96734. Disc. in bulk. NO CREDIT CARDS.
