Hummm - yummy! I remember as a child my mother flying out of Tucson - on a Connie. Aircraft look like ugly buses now I suppose...

Some light a/c look 'pretty' if one can use the term for an inanimate object.

I flew on a Constellation once, quite by surprise and unexpectedly, in the sixties, on an eastern commuter run. The aisle had a step up, about two thirds of the way to the rear. Most interesting passenger plane I ever was on.
