Water Cannon Salute For Pearl Harbor Survivor

The HNL ARFF honored Pearl Harbor attack survivor, Ira "Ike' Schab with a water cannon salute, as his Hawaiian Airlines flight taxied to the gate after arriving from PDX as HAL49. The 104-year-old Schab was also honored at the gate by Hawaiian Airlines employees. He is here to attend the 83rd December 7th remembrance at the Arizona Memorial Park on Joint Base Pearl Harbor Hickam. There are 16 survivors of the attack still living.

N388HA "Nahiku" (msn 1310, f/n 388) made the flight from PDX, and the water cannon salute was done as the A330-243 taxied near the Mauka Extension, where it parked at Gate A7.
