Glad you were there to document that!

Great fan of the flying boat history. Not sure if this is close to the old Pan Am stuff (I think that was Treasure Island ya? ??) But anywhere in the Bay feels close enough for this to be a nice end in my book. 🙂

Spot on the Pan Am terminal was on Treasure Island. The old terminal is a museum and was used in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

There's no seaplane in Last Crusade, I think it's Lost Ark 🤔

there is not. The old Pan Am seaplane terminal is in the movie. it’s the zeppelin terminal in the movie https://indianajones.fandom.com/wiki/Berlin_Flughafen#google_vignette

This one is super cool too! Thanks for sharing - love it.
