TWA Items

Wed Aug 10, 2016 4:31 pm

I am coming here for some guidance. My uncle was a Captain for TWA for 35 years, retiring in 1980. He flew on various aircraft, the last being the L1011 based out of LAX.

After he died years ago, I was given a lot of his things from his flying days. This includes his metal carry-on case, flight logs, TWA manuals, pictures, paystubs, some things that I don't know what they are but look to be manual calculators for guidance.

Is any of this worth anything or would anyone be interested in this stuff? Would there be a better place to go for information? Not sure if there is a TWA specific group or not.

Thanks for any information you can provide.

If you want to sell, go to an airliner show:

If you want a tax deduction and/or want the material to go to a good home, contact a museum like the one at SFO:
