She flew on my crew a lot. She was a great lady. -E.P. Lietz (7/25/03) Pilot Jack Schade sent a photo of the first Challenger stewardess class in 1948. Pictured in it is Mary Warhover - so her flying status actually started in 1948. Jack mentions that Challenger was the first of FL's predecessor airlines to have stewardesses. -Jake Lamkins (5/27/04) Silent Fliers Slate Benefit For Mary Pover The Silent Flyers, an organization of former Frontier Airlines flight attendants, has planned a benefit cocktail party and dance for Thursday, Dec. 12, and members are inviting all Frontier employees to attend. The party, which will be held from 8 to 11 p.m. at the Morningside Condominiums clubhouse, 6980 E. Girard Ave., Denver, will be a benefit for the Mary Warhover Pover family. Mrs. Pover was a stewardess for Challenger Airlines, then for Frontier for several years after the merger before taking a position in the Frontier Credit Union. She is now convalescing after having had 19 operations for a serious illness. Mrs. Helen Coons Miller, coordinator of the event, says Mary needs 'lots of things - and cards, letters, thoughts and prayers will help, too.' Music for dancing is being donated by the Squad Four band, a group of musicians made up of members of the Denver Police Department. Silent Flyers members are providing all the refreshments, and a donation will be taken at the door. Reservations will be accepted through Dec. 5. Telephone Mrs. Libby Richmond McWilliams, 733-6608, or Mrs. Miller, 452-5331, in Denver. FRONTIER NEWS, November, 1974 -Ken Schultz (4/8/05) Have you ever heard of the Silent Flyers? This was a group of former stews that was formed in 59/60 and I got to at least ONE meeting, but lost track of all the ladies who were in it. I wonder if anyone else in the FL group knows or remembers anything about what happened to the group and the people in it? -Mary Pat Langdon Simpson (1/1/09) Yes, I've heard of the Silent Flyers. It's mentioned in several of the FL FA memorial webpages. See Mary Warhover Pover, Jody Colquitt Binkley and Helen Coons Miller memorial webpages. Helen was president of the group at one time. FL FA Julie Santangelo Grinstead emailed the club is disbanded. -Jake Lamkins (1/2/09) MARY L WARHOVER DEN stewardess per the Jul 15, 1948 CHA Roster ------------------------------------ M L WARHOVER DEN senior clerk per the Nov 1955 FL Roster. She is not on the Feb 1960 FL Roster. ------------------------------------- 1948 is the earliest record of her being with CHA. Ken Schultz Challenger history says CHA started usimg stewardesses on Jul 1, 1948 and the Nov 1959 article says Mary flew the first flight using a stewardess. Aug 1959 article says she is engaged so she must have married and quit the company by the end of 1959. The Nov 1959 article infers she has left the company. I'll use 1948 - 1959 as her years of service. -Jake Lamkins (10/12/12) Posted at FLacebook and the FL Club: DEN flight attendant and senior clerk Mary Warhover Pover's memorial webpage has been updated. http://FAL-1.tripod.com/Mary_Warhover_Pover.html Four items added - we still need an obituary and a better photo. -Jake Lamkins (10/13/12) Posted at FLacebook and the FL Club: DEN flight attendant and senior clerk Mary Warhover Pover's memorial webpage has been updated. http://FAL-1.tripod.com/Mary_Warhover_Pover.html One item added - we still need an obituary and a better photo. -Jake Lamkins (4/20/15)
