Continental in Hawaii 78-80

[Beernutz]

Does anyone on this board know what type of planes and schedules were being flown out of HI during time by chance? Just some research, Thanks

my guess is dc 10

I'm also pretty sure it was the 10. In fact, the 10 at CAL was still flying there until about Nov 2001 or so.

I was a kid at the fence during this time and I can tell you for sure that it was primarily the DC-10 with an AirMic 727 a few days a week.

Just curious what the deal is with those specific years?

Airmic had some 74 classics too, right?

Ironically, that first photo was also the last time they did any work / upgrade to the HNL airport.....

They were flying the DC10-10 SEA-HNL. Had great freight loads.

I know they were running 747's later...like 1990 ish, however I don't recall anything about the 747's in the 1978-1980 range.
