COOLEST THING I’VE EVER MADE — 747 Pan Am Replica from the 1970’s Ep7 (VIDEO)

By Coolest Thing November 10, 2016 Original Story First Class Boeing 747 replica from Pan Am airlines. After running out of room in his garage, Anthony Toth had to move his replica 747 into a warehouse. Toth spent the last 30 years perfecting his Pan Am 1970’s 747 cabin, obsessing over every single detail from the carpeted murals to the packaging on the peanuts. Toth sourced all his plane parts from the Mojave desert’s “airplane graveyards” and spent over $150,000 on his 747 cabin. As he describes it “The Coolest Thing I’ve Ever Made”.

STUFF.CO — Relive Pan Am’s glory days – without leaving the ground

By Chris Woodyard October 19, 2016 Original Story In a most unlikely place, an industrial enclave of warehouses protected by razor wire, the golden age of what was once America’s pre-eminent airline lives again. For an evening, about two dozen “passengers” will experience the look and feel of Pan American World Airways in its heyday. They board as first or business-class fliers in a Pan Am Boeing 747. Only this isn’t a real plane. It’s a mock-up of the 747’s interior painstakingly reconstructed from an aircraft salvaged from a desert boneyard, every detail fastidiously recreated to be exactly as it appeared in the early 1970s. On their flight to nowhere, the well-dressed crowd will be wined and dined by stewardesses – […]

FASHION WEEK ONLINE — High Fashion: The Pan Am Experience Recreates Glamour of Air Travel

By Pablo Starr October 1, 2016 Original Story FLYING HIGH: INTERVIEW WITH ANTHONY TOTH Anyone who doubts that airline travel is inherently glamorous should look no further thanKarl Lagerfeld‘s Spring 2016 Paris Fashion Week airport show for Chanel. What’s not sexy about traveling by airplane? Well, as it turns out: lots of things. Legroom is cramped (for most of us, anyway), food is less-than-exciting (although your mileage may vary), and it can be a struggle to look terrific while staying comfortable. (For some tips on how to do it right, look no further than the Olsen Twins, or Karlie Kloss.) If we need any reminder that the Golden Age of Airline Travel may have waved goodbye from the tarmac some […]

INDULGE MAGAZINE — Restaurant with Nostalgia and Nosh: The Pan Am Experience

SÜDDEUTSCHE ZEITUNG MAGAZIN — Als Fliegen Noch Extravagant War

By Jürgen Schmieder September 13, 2016 Original Story  “Screwdriver? Manhattan? Gin Martini?” In Los Angeles kann man sich in einer nachgebauten Pan-Am-Maschine in die Lässigkeit der Siebzigerjahre zurücklehnen. Aber früher war nicht alles besser. Es ist erstaunlich, mit welch zeitloser Eleganz sich Chandall aus diesem misslichen Moment befreit. Sie lächelt freundlich, gar so, als würde sie sich über diesen Scherz aus der Kategorie Altherrenwitz tatsächlich köstlich amüsieren. Sie nimmt diese Männerhand, die langsam über ihren Rücken nach sehr weit unten gleitet, zwischen ihre Finger und hält sie fest. Mit einer Drehung entgeht sie der Umarmung. “Sie brauchen dringend einen Cocktail”, sagt sie: “Darf ich Ihnen noch einen Whisky Sour bringen?” Sie lässt die Hand los und kehrt zwei Minuten später mit […]
