My first time on an Airplane (December, 2000), i got into First Class for just an extra $100... My patience during the return flight's predeparture-seating problem resulted in another First Class seat - this time for free...! |

Jordan: As a child I grabbed all the airplane postcards I could at the time when I was on the airplane. Somehow I still have quite a few to this day. The only one I have that belongs in a museum is a Delta Airlines Convair 880. Talk about rare !!! This was in Delta's 1960's designs. I also have other oddballs and desirables: Lufthansa B-707 National 747 (long gone) SAS B-707 Delta DC-8 Delta 747 (early) Continental B-707 I should have some original extra Delta DC-8 postcards; if you have anything else along those lines. A few others here and there. |

Ralph- I dunno... somethin like that.. We studied the People's Express case in my marketing class and watched the video of the CEO giving a presentation to HBS students back in 1985.. Who knows what he was smoking.. |

Peoples express had nothing to look at on board. What happened if you did not have money for the airfare on Peoples Express ? Did'nt you have to pay on board for EVERYTHING ? Including toilet paper ~ |

Remember the hot gals serving drinks and peanuts on the 737-100's in the 70's and early 80's. Early days had hot pants and go-go boots. I remember when they did not fly out of Texas. The stewardesses were all lookers. They were all prom queens and or Miss Texas material. I miss those days !!! |
