^ Nice one!
Today the BBC has an article about the Jet Age and it reminds me of why media sources of information are not necessarily accurate.
BBC News - Flying with the jet set back when travel was glamorous
If someone were to read that that article and watch the embedded video they could use it to state that the B707 was the first jet airliner and that only Americans liked jet travel.
In my mind it is a seriously flawed article/video/book, having been written by an American apparently with an almost exclusively American viewpoint.
It might just be a poor article but it seems only to exist to plug a book, and from the look and sound of it it is unlikely to appeal to me.
