Kalami Airfield is identified in the Shop’s computer-generated travel schedule as the final listed stop on a route associated with Andy McGee’s planned departure for Hawaii. Its brief appearance makes it a waypoint in the Shop’s logistics rather than a setting for a narrated scene.

Place in the Travel Schedule

The computer record lists a departure for Maui at 1500 hours on October 9, followed by a route from Andrews Air Force Base through Durban Air Force Base to Kalami Airfield, marked as being in Hawaii. The schedule places the airfield within the itinerary disclosed to John Rainbird, who learns from the status display that Andy is due to leave Longmont the following afternoon.

Narrative Significance

Kalami Airfield enters the story through operational information, not through a character’s arrival or activity there. The itinerary gives Rainbird concrete evidence of Andy’s impending transfer, and its unexpected appearance in the computer record signals that the planned movement is authorized by Cap Hollister, though Rainbird had not previously known about it.
