Contents of the Collection

The Tami Dias Commercial Airlines Collection is a small collection of textual materials primarily related to Sabena and Trans World Airlines (TWA), 1978-1982. It includes a 1978 certificate for Sabena's inaugural flight between Atlanta and Brussels, Sabena instructional documents, "Terms and Definitions Relative to the Jet," and "Station Training for the Boeing 707-131," and a 1982 TWA interoffice correspondence about the first meeting of the Clerical Task Force. Also present is a JFK airport Hangar 12 sticker and an undated partial article, "Lovely ladies through the years," that appears to focus on Pan Am.
