In the year of 1970 many retired Northwest Airline pilots were no longer active members of ALPA and had lost communication with many of their friends and co-workers with whom they had been so close for many years.

At that time Frank 'Sam' Houston was involved with IFALPA.

Sam began to urge other Retirees, to organize something for the NWA Retired Pilots.
