8-)I was bidding on a 1947 Pan AM time table on Ebay. The bidding started with two bids at $19.99. I placed a bid for $22.50 but was out bid so I raised my bid to $25.00. I was out bid again so I went to $30.00. Again I was out bid so I dropped out. It's nice to have a time table with the flights I want but I can't see paying a jacked up price for it. I will continue to use my imagination to get my birds from point A to point B. I did learn one thing. Flight 1 World Flight began at LGA using DC-4 equipment and World Flight 2 began at SFO using Connies. I already have a route map for both flights so I'll just dummy in the times.

Hi Jesse, There is a 1947 PAA timetable available at www.timetableimages.com . Just load each page of the scan, print it, cut it up and tape it back together into a timetable, and you've got it for free! Hope this helps, |

Ewww.... why buy a Lone Star when you can buy him something quality - a Shiner.  Either way, I've dropped out of the bidding when it goes above 10 bucks every time. I just can't see paying that much for even a relatively new timetable. |

dont trust the biddings.. often a setup!
monitor for a couple of days, then you see no bids, until you do one, then suddenly 'someone else' starts to bid to raise the price!
