THE SUPER-SIXES
ARE COMING . . .
When Pan American inaugu
rates the DC-6B aircraft on the
Nome-Fairbanks route on June
. 4, there will be no increase in
fares either between Nome and
Fairbanks or Nome and Seattle.
With a fuel capacity of 5,512
gallons there is a generous reserve
for all operational requirements.
This permits a range of 4,440
miles. Thus, the craft is capable
of making a round trip between
Seattle and Nome without refuel
ing.
The DC-6B incorporates amdng
its many outstanding features the
reversible-pitch propeller. This is
used upon landing to shorten the
landing roll.
With an air-conditioning sys
tem the cabin air is completely
changed every three minutes thus
assuring clean, fresh air at all
times and altitudes.
