Initially used for testing, "Clipper America" was delivered to PAA on 12 June 1949, and soon renamed "Clipper Bald Eagle". This airline publicity shot shows a typical crew of eight in front of passengers and freight. Chevron's fuel tankers also get in on the act. The aircraft served the airline until sale in 1960. From PAA 60 years ago.
