By the time it went bust PanAm was a travesty of its former self. I am a retired Licenced engineer with 30 years of 747 experience and have never seen aircraft so obviously poorly maintained and in a filthy condition. Shortly after they ceased operations I was involved in operating 2 ex PanAm 747-100's and was appalled at the condition they were in. The aircraft came with ex PanAm cockpit and cabin crew -a better bunch of people to work with would be hard to find,they obviously had a huge loyalty to the company and were devastated when it failed - they deserved better.
