	On October 29, 1956 the international FAM-18 (Foreign Air Mail) route added service from 
Philadelphia to Calcutta and from Boston to Ankara.  
	Coupled with existing FAM-14 routes, this allowed mail another route to travel completely 
round-the-world by regularly scheduled air mail service of the US Post Office. 

	Outline of existing FAM-14 air routes with the new FAM-18 routing:
