Another Movie Monday from the vault of historical airline footage on YouTube! This week a “Letter from an Airline Pilot” chronicling the operations of TWA circa 1947. The 23min video is an incredible historical look into the mid-century operations of the Lockheed Constellation (photos) including the production, training, flight operations and maintenance of the aircraft and the airline. No description I write here will do the video justice, it’s an absolute gem. Enjoy.
Hat tip to Bradley Cooke for the find.
