The first time we flew to Hawaii, I was able to stand up and
mill around at the back of the plane with some other guys, but that
behavior isn't really possible these days, post 9-11.

Do you remember the days when 747s had piano bars in the back and the
stewardesses were young girls in mini skirts??


I don't know if Eastern Airlines every had a 747 or any young stewardess
wearing a mini-skirt.

They did back in the 60s. On my way home from active duty in the
army the plane was only about half full and one of Eastern's good
looking young flight attendants decided to sit with me. It must have
been the uniform. :-)


When I was doing a lot of flying in the mid-eighties all of those
Eastern Arilines stewardesses who had not managed to get hitched were
still trolling the aisles of the plans.
