Let Us Not Forget
The helicopter that fell off the Pan Am building in New York !!!
I remember being on a Pan Am 747 with maybe 40 passengers aboard SFO-JFK in the 70's, an hour-long chat with a beautiful and smart flight attendant, great food, a lounge, and the flight was on time. I remember thinking, all is right with the world.
Contrast with todays' situation, packed knee to chin with Michael Moore next to you PHX to BWI with 6 peanuts. All is not right with the world.
Of course the Pan Am flight was $ 275 one way.... about $ 2750 in today's dollars maybe.
