1962 Flying Cloud
S-0609

Hi David,

According to Airstream Archives, the serial numbers for 1962 CA built Flying Clouds had ending digits between 0630 and 0875 and the OH built didn't have S in the serial number at all in '62. It could be that your trailer falls within the 1961 serial number range. According to the Archives, OH may not have built Flying Clouds in '61 and the CA built Flying Clouds had serial numbers as follows:

22 TS (or TSS) 0419 to 0629
where the first alpha is T=twin-bed layout; D=double-bed; TD=two full beds

It is not uncommon for trailers built late in one year to be registered the following year. Are there more alpha numeric digits on your plate besides s-0609? I would be inclined to list it as a '61 in the registry if that's ok with you. See what the Archives has to say and see what you think:

Thanks,

I am glad to see the list is still growing strong. I have been away for some time. By the way 7117 is my Flying Cloud located in Western Kentucky.

Greg, great to have you back in the saddle. I hope I didn’t overstep the bounds on keeping the Registry updated in your absence. Thanks

I have been thinking for awhile how fun it would be to see a map of all on this list. Hopefully this will work https://www.mapcustomizer.com/map/Fl...dium=pinterest

That is a cool idea, took lots of time and energy. It’s amazes me how many survivors there are. I looked and looked for our ‘mark’ without luck until I found it, seems like we moved to Missouri! We are number 40, but we live in saline Mi.
Thanks again, happy camping!

It does work!! Don't know how I missed it. That is great; it even shows trailers abroad and is color coded by year! That must have been a lot of work; thank you!

Wonder if there is a better way to view the list and map from this thread other than having to find the last post that contains the link?

Thank you for catching that. It took awhile to figure out how to fix this one, I considered asking you to just move . I had to add the county to make it move to Michigan. I hope others are looking and will help me correct.

Thanks Bubba, it wasn't that hard and only possible due to the efforts of you and Captian Jones. I have tried and no way to embed.

Thanks KrisE for your input and time spent making this a more informative tool. Eventually we’ll figure out a way to imbed.
