Pacific Northern
Airlines Noordyn UC-64A Norseman
NC61323
(c/n 641)
This Norseman was used by PNA's forerunner, Woodley Airways,
immediately after WWII, It
was the former
UC-64A 44-70375. In the above photo, via the RJ Wilmoth
collection, I am
not able to
discern whether the fuselage logo is that of PNA or, in fact Woodley.
Art Woodley
was more or less forced to change the name of his Woodley Airways to
something more cosmo-
politan if he
was ever to be awarded a route to Seattle and hence in 1946 the airline
name was
changed to
PNA. Following this expansion, smaller types such as this
Norseman were sold off.
