I miss working for PanAm I worked for the airline for 4 years until the last day on December 4 1991 when they announced all operations were suspended I immediately got hired with American Airlines and I just retired after 33 years I miss flying on the 747 plane ✈️
1980s: Extinguish any cigarettes before putting on your oxygen mask, 2020s: Remove any face covering before putting on your oxygen mask While I never went on a "smoking" flight, I do remember when ashtrays were standard equipment in every seat
Interesting difference between Airbus and Boeing planes: on Airbuses, the oxygen mask compartment door is turned 90 degrees relative to on a Boeing jet.
I remember this well - 1988! These were the days that there was a mystique about things, things were comfortable, there was variety. Nowadays everything is sterile and boring. I dunno - hard to explain.
Nothing to explain. Everything was more whimsical and everything was an adventure. Now everything looks like a fake Apple Store including the airport itself.
Glorious days of air travel...

I can watch it all day. Also still can't believe u could smoke onboard 😅
Oh it was a fabulous time to be alive indeed.
Those were the days which I was brought up in. Unfortunately they didn't stop it soon enough.

Back when you could get on a plane and sit comfortably
The guy calmly extinguishes his cigarette as the plane suffers a crippling rapid decompression.
Never realised cigarettes made you that calm, lol.
It would have been extinguished by the decompression lol
Put that cigarette out, Dudley!!

The Airbus orientation is more resistant to coming open in a crash.
@@straightpipediesel I can imagine that being the case. Thanks for the explanation!
I just got A300B2 for xplane, someone needs to make a PAA livery 😏🤔

I flew onboard a PanAm A300 as a kid.
