Hemmeter Aviation operated a Rockwell Turbo Commander 690B primarily to get Chris Hemmeter to Kauai, Maui and the Big Island hotel development projects. The Westin Maui, Westin Kauai Lagoons and Hyatt Waikaloa were all being built at the same time. When we started Hemmeter Air is was difficult to meet the charter demand due to Chris's need for the aircraft. We got a second 690B to meet the charter demand... Chris wanted the second aircraft as well. We didn't get a third and discontinued our efforts to offer charters.





Hemmeter Aviation was the exclusive handler for both British Airway and Air France's Concorde's in Hawaii.

Hemmeter Aviation was a division of Hemmeter Corporation based at Honolulu International Airport. Starting as a corporate flight department for Chris Hemmeter but developed into a primier Fixed Base Operation / private aircraft terminal. Operations grew to all major islands in Hawaii and included international services many miles from home at Gander, Newfoundland. See the many faces of Hemmeter Aviation below.

British Airway's Concorde in Honolulu


The British Airways and Air France Concorde' both came through Honolulu in November 1986. The video is a collection of local news broadcasts. The video is an old VHS conversion which is not of very good quality but wanted to share.
