Ralph Savory-PanAm Turns 100 Years Young

Thu Oct 15, 2009 2:14 pm

Ralph Savory, former Chief Pilot of Pan American out of Seattle, turned 100 years of age yesterday. I know of him from my late Dad who flew with Ralph in B-377 30V in October, 1957 from Aukland, NZ to the South Pole, the first flight ever for a commercial aircraft.
Congrats Ralph on your milestone and a fine aviation career.
