field order signed by Maxine.
Arrived in Hono.
1155 and were met by A.E.C.
representa-
tive and Keith Allsup, H & N who had just arrived on Fan Am
from L.A.
Went direct to A.E.C. ~ Hono. office where Robt. McCurtain
helped us get started through the paper mill.
Found our freight
had arrived but had not keen delivered from the ship.
H&N
were to pick it up and get it booked on the next flight.
It is obvious that PMR or~--sSomeone has not passed the word
along the line that we have any priority for all the seats on
the plane due out Wed. morning have been assigned to others.
McCurtain and his associates in A.E.C.
spent the day begging
seats wherever they could--finally they were able to come up
with eight

spaces--but no assurance that the freight would
be shipped.
