Hey , one of those “ air conditioning “ trucks would be a great restoration project
ОтветитьDon't forget the DC3 was the main plane to save the Berlin population during Blockade - Airlift 1948!
Especially Berlin People are grateful for that until today!
What a classic. I was fortunate enough to be able to fly in the ARCO DC 3 from Burbank to Albuquerque and back on a weekend in 1967 as a teen. My friend's dad was a pilot for ARCO and the executive VP liked flying in the DC 3 even though he had a Fan Jet Falcon at his disposal as well as a Gulfstream II. He was an older gentleman who didn't mind us teens flying with him. He said he flew the Fan Jet Falcon only on cross country trips but had flown the DC-3 because the cabin was like an office and living room and he had time to work. It had a galley and employed a stewardess/cook on board for guests and business partners. The same for ARCO's jets. This Executive VP told me Dwight Eisenhower had been aboard the plane a couple of times as well since he left office and a couple of the Secret Service Agents accompanied him. As I remember, it took close to 6 hours to get to Albuquerque and I don't believe we went above 11,000 feet. I know my ears popped.
ОтветитьI flew in them in the '70s on Texas International airlines. Once we landed during a severe thunderstorm and the flight attendant looked a little nervous.
ОтветитьThis is awesome I love sleeping to these old school programs but this is my favorite plane funny I'm from Detroit! 😉👍🇺🇲
ОтветитьThen the white man came in starships and save us all!!!! Thank god for the all powerful white man!!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
ОтветитьHistory is weird😂
ОтветитьThat DC 3 cockpit was so small.
ОтветитьI was waiting 25 minutes for someone aboard to tell the old lady to shut the f up and mind her own business
ОтветитьLittle Old lady is such a G
ОтветитьSo nostalgic ❤️❤️❤️
Aviation golden era 🎼🎺🛩
So glamorous 👨✈️ 👩✈️🗽
Imagine the annoyance nowadays if passengers were permitted to engage in anti-social activities such as pounding on a mechanical typewriter during a flight
Ответитьunintentional sleep inducer, i love dc-3s!!
ОтветитьLoved this film.... As a BRANIFF Hostess back in 1956!!!.....(mostly flying Convairs and DC-6) I was part of a crew that ferried a Braniff DC-3 from Midway Airport to Sioux City, Iowa after midnight. Sitting in the jump seat, I told the Captain that I was taking flying lessons (PIPER CUB) , had soloed and done my first cross country flight! He sent the co pilot back to take a nap....let me fly....and then after a few minutes he went back for a cup of coffee!! I was alone in the cockpit grasping that steering when that dark night over Iowa for about 15 minutes.......(that wouldn't happen in today's world)
ОтветитьUnless he had a double, actor Paul Douglas [-Fleischer] appears at 19.14.
ОтветитьMost of the aircraft in the film are DC-2s, recognized by the engine cowlings.
ОтветитьI remember riding one of those back in the 60s
ОтветитьLook how everyone was dressed to the 9s. I know its a corporate advertisement but people actually dressed like that back then. I can remember Delta making we non-revs dress up to ride until the late 90s. Having flown (not for Delta) for more than 42 years, I know those flights weren't smooth or quiet.
ОтветитьCan you imagine a Ryanair pilot doing a circe over Manchester to give the punters a look 😂 gone are the days
Ответить1st flight for me in the 50s was Jackson, Michigan to Detroit, Michigan via North Central Airlines on a DC-3. I love to look at videos regarding this aircraft.
ОтветитьReally funny!
ОтветитьKind of hilarious, but most people had never flown & had no idea what it might be like. The service on this plane sure beats today’s service! I’m 58 & had to fly to school 6-10 times a year since I was 13, & then to my home in the US in 1984, so now back to NZ, The UK, Australia, & Europe. Only recently did I learn how much environmental damage my life travel has done. But, in this video, all that is not even imagined!
ОтветитьSo ageist. Sweet old lady.
ОтветитьDouglas DC-3, gran e importante aeroplano. Mi favorito.
Hermosa película American Airlines.
👍👍🇨🇱
This is now "crossed" in less than 6 hours .. lol .. Also they were flying low enough for a lot more sightseeing than at 30000 nowaday..lol
ОтветитьThey just couldn't let the whole "ship" thing go, could they? Love it.
ОтветитьHow cool, the little old lady played the dotty aunt on Bewtched!
ОтветитьSo funny the ppl talking on the plane like they can hear each other 😆 prop planes were loud af
Ответитьat 22+ the speed queen of the atlantic normandie going to pier 88.
ОтветитьSHORTEST FLIGHT OF STEPS(SHORTER THAN A TRAIN'S)ON WHICH U COULD STUMBLE N FALL(OR U WERE DRUNK)BUT WOULD NEVER B HURT SERIOUSLY!!!EVEN PRIVATE JETS ARE MORE HAZARDOUS!!!🤔🤔🤔🤭🤭🤭
ОтветитьIMAGINE A TIME WHEN U HAD TO B SWEET TALKED INTO FLYING,TODAY AIRPORTS RESEMBLE WOOLWORTHS SALES,BLACK FRIDAY SALES!!!
ОтветитьWONDERFUL
ОтветитьTalk about lipstick on a pig! In about a year most of these AA employees would be given uniforms and green Goonies to fly.
ОтветитьI love these "Golden Age of Flight" videos-- everyone dressed up, polite, no Karens or Chads.
ОтветитьThanks for this video. My first flight was in 1947 from LA to SF on a DC3.
ОтветитьI love this DC-3 on which I worked for 5 years as a technician - Sergeant in the Indian Air Force serving in the North East India, both during war and peace time.( 1971-1975) We suffered from want of supply of spares and cleverly managed to fly about 40 of them, I think, upto 1981-83.( I left IAF my DC-3 Sqn in 1975 and also IAF in 1977) I fondly remember the aircraft and proudly recall my memories abt maintaining it & flying so many ops.sorties on duty!
ОтветитьIn 1960, my dad got on a plane for the first time - an American Airlines Flagship DC-3 to Chicago. He connected on to California on a Boeing 707.
69 years later, and I am starting my new job flying for American Airlines next month.
What a wild, amazing world we live in!
Muy bueno..ahora: los pasajeros son todos gente de negocios y común pero Blanca!, los afroamericanos sólo se ven como botones o empleados menores, jejeje, el racismo es fuerte aún en estos tiempos, en fin, una nota más de color para una película promocional MUY AMERICANA...
ОтветитьImpresiona ver que muchas cosas, pero con tecnología segimos haciendo en los vuelos. Esta gente escribió los libros de historia y nos mostró el camino. Gracias a todos ellos hoy seguimos volando. Abrazo, y Buenos Vuelos. Gustavo De Ibarra - Piloto de Transporte de Línea Aérea de Argentina. B732 / DHC8 / SA227
ОтветитьThat little old lady from Springfield sure seems familiar from Hollywood pictures. Recognize the voice especially.
ОтветитьThis vid is really "false advertisement" emphasizing a "smooth flight". Not back then! Smooth started with the 707.
ОтветитьThe captain ?? Hey who’s flying the plane ???
