Old School

You might be Old School if you remember when flying was fun.

I can remember flying TWA from San Francisco to New York. The stewardesses wore paper dresses and served hand carved prime rib from a cart. And the drinks just kept coming.

Now flying is about as much fun as Greyhounding.
 
If you were stationed on any one of these carriers ,Wooden flight decks you might be Old School. :grin:

If you had to fill these before starting your engine, you might be Old School.

Old school?
Anybody remember $0.18 per gallon for gas? We used to have "gas wars" between filling stations. They still provided service.
 
PS
And thats when I was a teenager. I could fill the tank of my '59 Ford police interceptor with twin 4 barrel carbs (uncle was a car dealer) for :)3 bucks.
 
I got married in 1970. there was a gas war all across the US. I paid as little as .10 cents per gallon.
