Pan Am and the 747 names

Pan Am over the years had named its aircraft with some interesting nautical themed names. Clipper Champion of the Seas and Clipper Water Witch are two that come to mind. These names once graced the hulls of the Clipper ships that sailed between the west coast United States and the Orient.

Some favorite names seen on Pan Am 747's were Clipper Sea Serpent, Clipper Romance of the Seas, Clipper Sovereign of the Seas, and Clipper Queen of the Pacific. These names all have been placed on Pan Am's 747 fleet that flew the world.
