Does anyone remember when flying used to be so glamorous? Like back in the 60's-oops I'm giving away my age. Sadly it's not anymore…

These days I hardly remember my name; however, I DO remember the '60's and air travel. (I was extremely young! <img src='style_emoticons//laugh.gif’ border=’0′ style=’vertical-align:middle’ alt=’laugh.gif’ /> ) And it WAS glamorous! Much different from now. No one would have dared to wear jeans. One dressed for the occasion!

I'd say it's safer now, but we're still using many of the same planes so do make sure the cover is on the fuel tank (it's usually under the wing) and ask the pilot if he has an iPhone or a Blackberry in his possession. We don't want him playing on-line poker or texting when he should be watching the instruments, do we? <img src='style_emoticons//laugh.gif’ border=’0′ style=’vertical-align:middle’ alt=’laugh.gif’ />
