Also, at that time, the planes were not like these types of planes that we have now. I think the biggest plane was a 100-passenger plane, something like that, and the fuel capacity of those planes was not like they are today.

What is this guy talking about? The 747 was flying in 1969.

The 747 went into service on 21 January 1970 with Pan Am. First flight occurred on 9 Feb 1969. Design of the buildings probably began in 64 or 65.
