...here in the US Braniff, Mohawk and American Airlines flew 1-11s. The American Airlines planes were the 400 series.
After the acquisition of Capital, United operated Viscounts into the late 1960s. They were also the only US airline to operate the French SUD Caravalle.
My first ever flight was on a 1927 Ford Stout (better known as the Ford "Tri Motor") at an airshow in the 1960s. My first paid airline flight was on a Lockheed L-188 Electra Turboprop. The coolest plane I ever flew was a BOAC VC-10 Between Chicago and Montreal.
To this day in my book, It is the prettiest jetliner ever built.
...mmm, tasty.
Press to play.
I think I cannot be perfect but I am expected to be perfect at my home.
That's not my problem. I am perfect but nobody notices it.
It is just my feelings of perfectionism that made me feel that way.

You know me too well. It's almost 3 0 Clock
When I was going to college in the late '60s I used to fly Eastern Airlines home to Buffalo, NY through Tampa from Melbourne, Florida for $100 (round-trip) The trip home would only take 2h 30m. I often arrived at the Melbourne airport only 20 minutes early. We had free hot meals with real meat, a vegetable, saltines, fruit and desert, and used metal silverware. Baggage check was free, carry on was free. Stewardess would provide pillows, towels, blankets, free coffee & sodas if asked. Alcoholic drinks were a dollar. The stewardesses were young, cute and pleasant. The seats were thick, soft, more than ample width wise and legroom wise. We didn't have TV or movies or phones but we did have music piped through hollow tubes. There was no security check area. Friends & family were permited to come to the gate to see you off. In Melbourne, the "gate" was just that, a gate in a chain link fence at the edge of the tarmac and you walked on the pavement to the stairs that had ejected from the plane itself. In rainy weather the airport staff loaned you an umbrella. I think it was a desirable trophy for a student from my college to have a perloined two-toned blue Eastern umbrella in their dorm room.
The planes were Eastern's Boeing 727 terribly misnamed "WhisperJet" later identified as one of the loudest and most polluting jets for their size ever manufactured. But I thought they were beautiful. I'm not sure but I think they were the only commercial jets to ever have three engines on the tail. If you sat in the rearmost window seats your head was about 18 inches from the side engines, which made conversation difficult. A couple of times we boarded or deplaned through the tail stairway that dropped down parallel to the body at the end of the tail. I've never seen another jet with that feature either.

Now days, I'd fly only if I absolutely had to and somebody else paid. I HATE the modern airport experience.
huhm so the rdna thing is really real. seeing aiko's sugar outfit in my prod lib
@Misty: You're in the dialogue of a movie.
Cowardly Lion:
Courage. What makes a King out of a slave? Courage.
What makes the flag on the mast to wave? Courage.
What makes the elephant charge his tusk in the Misty Mist or the dusky dusk?
What makes the muskrat guard his musk? Courage.
What makes the Sphinx the 7th Wonder? Courage.
What makes the dawn come up like THUNDER?! Courage.
What makes the Hottentot so hot?
What puts the "ape" in ape-ricot?
Whatta they got that I ain't got?
Dorothy & Friends: Courage!
Cowardly Lion: You can say that again.
I want to make a business phone call but I have no privacy and I feel like taking a nap.
...more planes that actually look as if they would follow the laws of aerodynamics.
...actually, compared to the turbo (not fan) jet powered DC-8s, 707s, 720s and Convair 880s/990s which were still operated in the 1960s, the 727 was quieter especially when on the ground with engines running (The Convairs were the noisiest and smokiest). Eastern coined the moniker "Whisperjet" because the engines were all behind the passenger cabin making the interior quieter than that of jets which had engines on the wings. (particularly for the poor folks in toruist who sat behind the wing).
There actually were two other aircraft with built in exit stairs under the tail, The McDonnell Douglas DC-9 (which Eastern also operated), and SUD Caravalle (which United flew).
Ahh, the days when air travel was something really special. I miss those too. Even as a teen I was fairly tall and never had legroom issues like I do now. The only fee you paid outside of liquor was if you had severely oversized/overweight baggage. Even then it was a modest amount compared to today. People argue that fares were more expensive back then, but if you were savvy you could get some decent deals. I usually flew "space available" which would knock 33% to 50% off my fare. You had to be a bit flexible but I rarely ever had to wait more than a couple extra hours as airlines didn't overbook flights like they did after deregulation. If the only seat available was in First, I ended up in First (and received all the amenities of first class service). The other nice feature was airfares were "standardised" and interchangeable between the major airlines, so you could be ticked on say, Northwest, but if space was available on a United or American flight, you could use your ticket on one of those airlines. It also meant connecting between different airlines was easier and cost less than it does today.
There were no penalties for cancellation or change of itinerary, all tickets were refundable, no having to purchase your ticket weeks/months in advance to get a good deal and a number of special discounts like student, military, family, and senior fares.
Stevens Point where I went to school was similar to your description of Melbourne just a small terminal building with a chain link fence that had two gates. There were two flights a day using DC-9 jets (which looked really gigantic next to the small terminal) but the rest of the flights were turboprop Convairs. Boarding planes in winter there could be brutal as it was often windy with temperatures frequently near or below zero (F). A few years later they built a more "modern" regional airport north of the city in Mosinee (serving the four towns of Stevens Point, Wisconsin Rapids, Wausau, and Marshfield) where North Central switched their operations to. After that, STE pretty much was relegated to a general aviation facility save for two small commuter airlines, Midstate and Air Wisconsin.
Here.s a shot of one of the more common visitors to Stevens Point Municipal the Convair 580 (sadly couldn't find pics of a DC-9 there )
...and this is the actual Ford Tri Motor that I had my first ever flight on at a later airshow appearance in Oshkosh (unfortunately that is not me in the co-pilot's seat).
I think I can connect hotmail with outlook, right? but what about gmail?
