Yea, just having fun with their name. While people do consider that era, the ‘golden age of flying’, I remember it, and I don’t. We had plane crashes at 10 times the rate of today, and we had coach air fares, adjusted for inflation and real wages, that were well above even Premium Economy, sometimes even what people pay for Business Class today.
