The S-42 "Samoan Clipper" moored at Pago Pago, Samoa on Christmas Eve, 1937. Unfortunately PAA would have a tragic experience with Pago Pago and mostly abandoned it as a seaplane base because the harbor was extremely difficult for landings and take-offs, with high, often cloud-covered nearby mountain peaks. |
