...twelve bases (see map,p. 90) are at Amapá, Belém, Sao Luiz, Camocim, Fortaleza, Natal, Recife, Maceió, Bahia. Seven are land ports, five sea. (Pan Am is still negotiating for another land base at Bahia.) At each project, 500 to 800 men are at work...
...deference to Brazilian feelings, no U.S. Army engineers we're involved, but the whole project was delayed at the start by Brazilian doubts. Then it was delayed by Pan Am's own inexperience, by the late arrival of machinery, by an excess of executives (at Natal for a time they outnumbered the men in overalls). No field is yet complete.

Across Africa, Pan Am planned direction finders, hangars, fields, communications and weather stations, resthouses. Priorities for the necessary materials are expected to be granted...
British Guiana is equidistant (1,450 miles) from the Canal and Natal, Brazil, hub port of the South Atlantic. There the U. S. Navy will build two air bases - a patrol plane squadron base and airdrome 25 miles up the Demerara River, a seaplane base near Suddie...
