My first air travel was 1965: Most were dressed nicely, planes very clean and painted beautifully from the outside, food good, security minimal and all people treated with respect.
Must have been nice just buying a ticket and hopping on a plane, like a bus going down the street. 😒
Reeeeally wish we could do that today.
Sounds like a dream…
Spirit airlines maintains same pattern…😂😂🎉
I fell in love with the B707 back in 1964 at the age of 9 when taking my first jet flight from Sydney to Singapore via Djakarta - with Qantas. I can still hear the roar of those fabulous engines on take off. I never tire of seeing them.
The golden years of classic aviation, I love the DC-8 and the B707, thank you so much.
You are very welcome. Glad you enjoyed the clip.
Glad you liked the film! We all miss the 707 and DC-8 ... and the VC-10!
this was a joy to watch and remember! Thank you for making and sharing. My father from1960,on...worked for ARINC. He was great using his travel benefits with us, and the world really did become my oyster! we still have his movies,and slides taken faithfully by him, plus my crew uniforms, and manuals, that I am sadly looking for a good home, for what was historical, and TRUELY the golden age of passenger transportation. if interested, let me know.
Where was the DH-Comet
Seeing those DC-8s and IL-62s gave me goosebumps. I was so lucky as a child and a young man I’ve travelled on all these beautiful aircraft. My all time favourite was the VC-10.
The golden years of aviation!! What a great movie
Thank you, I love classic jetliners too😃😃👍👍
My father was a captain with TWA and this video really brings back some memories..... great video thumbs up to you
good old time. When i was a child i stood so many hours at the Airport in Hamburg. and now i felt the amazing Feeling again. Not to compare with the world of nowadays! Thank you very much!
Imagine actually feeling good after a flight as you stride out of the plane.
Beautiful planes!
These shots at YUL nearly raised tears to my eyes as I remember all that time spent, with my late parents, in that airport, due to the European origin of my family. That walk by the the Irish Aer Lingus and Sabena check-in counters, next to Air France, just blew me away as I remember every colour of it!!!! The prime CP Air livery, the Air France 707 Intercontinental, SAS DC-8s and BOAC 707-433...and the interior of TCA's first DC-8 series 40 with their 28 First class Palomar seats, amazing :) It was great being a kid in an airport in those days. I can testify.
Hi Vincent, I am very happy to hear that this preview clip brought back very nice memories.I love reading comments like this, thank you so much for sharing this. Actually we have a full 1 hour film coming to JetFlix TV very soon that has a lot more of this footage as it will be all about the airline industry in Canada in the 1960s. I hope you might consider joining JetFlix as you are passionate about vintage airline films, and our films are full feature shows. Not just short clips like you typically find here on this service. Food for thought.
I remember my parents taking us to Dorval Airport, paying a nickle to go on the observation deck....watching all those amazing airlines, and of course, smelling that jet fuel!
BOAC 707-436...33 is AC.
@@marcopiscina8420 I lived in Dorval in the 50s and I spent as much time as I could at the airport observation deck. DC4s, 6s and 7s and always my favorite the super constellations (or as my grandfather use to say consternation). Fun.
@@michaelbourne9558 What wonderful memories. I remember watching Air Canada's Vickers Viscount and Vanguard fly over our house.. I just retired from the airline industry after 35 years. Bittersweet to say the least. I was very honored to have worked for USAir, American, and Southwest. Everything about the industry is so different now. It was time to go. Cheers to you Michael.
I want to thank you especially for the comments about the music. I like it, and I also really appreciate that you made it clear about the lack of audio from the footage, because I'm totally blind and an aviation buff. I absolutely love the DC8s, so it's good to know about the footage ahead of listening to the video. Of course, nobody anticipated that lots of blind people really love aviation, and we love to identify these airplanes by their sounds. So I certainly can't hold it against you all for the lack of audio.
Btw, I'm reading and typing using text-to-speech software, and I always try to read the descriptions to videos and many comments, because someone else might just have a question I have, and nothing is more frustrating than when tons of people ask the same questions without checking the comments and descriptions first. I find it refreshing that you include those "heads-up" notices in the description, and I'm considering becoming a member to the streaming service. I'll check the faqs also to see if you will feature an annual membership.
Again, thanks for the information.
Dear Heather, thank you so much for your message which is very much appreciated. It has made my day to hear that my work and life passion has given joy and uplifting to you and can be appreciated by people such as yourself. Thank you for your email as well and I will be responding today. Have a great day and thank you again for your wonderful comments and support. Sincerely, Henry
My very first jet ride -- a TWA B=707 from NY to LA in 1960 !! The sight & sound of those J=57 engines is a priceless memory....
Henry!!!!! This is absolutely awesome! 🙌 I have just found your RUclips channel and I am currently bingeing all your stuff. ❤ love this as I love history and aviation. ❤
Thank you Amy, it was a great pleasure to meet you and your dad at the fair. I had such a fantastic time and will attend next year. That is my plan. I’m glad you’re enjoying my RUclips channel. I think it’s about 15 or 20 years old now.
Man!! Where'd you come up with the great high-quality footage of so many long-ago retired (and mostly forgotten) aircraft types?? That's quite a feat!!
The Viscount,and he Bristol Britannia are one of my favorites.
The British created very asthetically pleasing designs in their airliners of the 1950s and 1960s.
Amazing. Thank You so much. Brings back so many great memories for me, especially Canadian Pacific and Trans Canada in the 60s.
That certainly brings back memories of the old days. My father was borne in Barbados and the TCA photos were great. I went to Barbados with dad and my brother from Montreal in 1957 on a DC4 complete with 4 merlin engines. I was 9 years old and I still hear the sounds. A fuel stop in Bermuda pushed the time to 11 hours so we were in the dark for several hours. Watching the fire as it came over the top of the merlins was a bit spooky and landing at the very small airport (by modern standards) was fun. Reminiscing brings back wonderful times.
Thank you Michael for sharing your wonderful memories of your Northstar flight to Barbados. By the way my wife and I love Barbados. We started going several years ago and have stayed at Coconut Court and Blue Orchids and Blue Horizon next to the Chaffette. It is a wonderrful Island with great people. We also went to the Boatyard and Carlie Bay beach a lot. We cannot wait to go back but need the world to be a safer place post covid. I have flown Air Canada rouge 767s and A319s YYZ-Barbados. Sadly the 767s are now history. A far cry from your Northstar flights in the 50s.
@@JetFlix Thanks for your reply. I'm glad to hear that you a 'Bajun' also. My wife and I were there in 1997 for 2 weeks but not since. The merlins are still singing. Thanks again to you and you wife.
Beautiful footage of all these aircraft! And the music isn't bad at all!
I miss the 727 so much
Yeah....I miss the diversity of the planes from back then..!!!
Thoroughly enjoyed it, brought back memories fo when I used to ride my push bike 15 miles to sit at the southern boundary and watch the propliners and brand new Dc 9s and Boeing 727s land and take off. I was also there for the first and only landing of a BOAC Bristol Brittania.
I love your program, because the aircraft of the past were very popular, and famous to watch.
Hey thank you for that man! Appreciated!
Brilliant - more interesting variation in that 5 minute clip than you would see at any airport these days! Love the CP Air DC-8, brings back memories of my first flight from Prestwick to Vancouver in ’79. 🏴🇨🇦👍
Glad you enjoyed it! I totally agree that the aircraft back then we’re a heck of a lot more interesting and more varied than today. I miss my classic jet liners.
I miss the most beautiful jet transport, the Vickers VC-10.
😍
These are the rare and incredible footage that somehow survived the time! Who cares about the music anyway? Thanks for sharing.
Thank you ... the video is all about the footage, not the overlay music
My first airplane ride, was a trip to Ireland to visit family, circa 1973, from JFK to Dublin (Shannon Stopover) on an Aer Lingus Boeing 707, we hit turbulence on the way over, my mom screaming like an Irish Banshee and me and my bro (7 years old) laughing our heads off like we were on a carnival ride. Til this day, the smell of jet fuel always reminds me of that trip.
It is amazing how smells can trigger memories from decades ago and early childhood. The wiring of the brain is fascinating.
A Flying Tiger CL-44 at 4:26. I got to fly one of the ex-Tiger aircraft for a cargo airline back in the 80s. What great memories.
Oh boy ... did you shoot any video on that flight. I am praying you did.
Saw that CL-44D and recall my dad doing flight training in it in Montreal. Seaboard World Airlines bought these in the hopes that the swing tail design would aid the loading and unloading of their cargo, and would be more efficient. Also recall his complaints of the tower personnel speaking only in French when they operated them in Quebec...just to be dicks. They were fully aware that English was the language to be used worldwide, for airline safety.
I was Flight Engineer on the CL44 with Transmeridian Air Cargo at Stansted in the late 70s, we did a lot of flights using Flying Tigers flight numbers. I also remember Wardair from when I was avionics at Gatwick. My father was an engine/airframe mech at BOAC on the Argonaut fleet in the 50s.
Wonderful memories! Thank you.
This is great,top marks to you jetflix
Thank you John
Really excellent complication of footage. Beautifully done!
Thanks for revealing the past history. This video is excellent 👍 for the new generation to know about the old history.
We have over 1000 similar movies on our aviation streaming service JetFlix TV
@@JetFlix thanks 😊 a lot sir for your Information 👍
That one shot with several L1011's lined up was so beautiful.
where?
They are B-727, because of the 4 over wing emergency exits.
Thanks for the great Videos 🤠 excellent work you have done. I enjoyed the music 🎶
Wow - so beautiful. Miss those days!
Well done.. makes an avgeek cry 😭
WOW, I had a summer job at JFK on the Ramp. I saw many of these aircraft, Thank's ! I don't see any more L-1011's, DC-10's,DC-8's. On the 12-8 shift that I worked a few times a "Connie" would come in around sunrise, Very cool to watch when it was so quiet at the ramp. Concorde (x2) was there too !
What year was that Matt? You were very lucky to be there then. Did you take any movie films or colour slides of the aircraft? Awesome stuff all those great classic oldies!
Summer of 79 and summer of 80
Great stuff. Great memories.
Great video. I recall my first airline flight was in 1977 after I had obtained my private pilot's license at Buttonville Airport near Toronto. It was an early morning business trip from Toronto to Montreal on an Air Canada stretch DC8. I think all told there were only a dozen or so passengers on board including me but in those days the airline was owned by the federal government. That same year I was piloting a rented Cessna 172 out of Toronto International Airport and while taxiing to the active runway I was told by the ground control to give way to Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau's government transport aircraft which was taxiing to a terminal after landing. It was a beat-up old ex-TransCanada Airlines Vickers Viscount. I was often taken to Malton (Toronto) airport in the 1950s by my Mom to watch my Dad fly off on frequent business trips and in those days you could stand outside on a second floor terminal balcony during good weather to watch the aircraft movements. It was 10 cents admission to pass through the turnstile to get outside onto the balcony. I recall the Vanguards and Viscounts were so loud upon starting you had to cover your ears with your hands. I especially enjoyed the Lockheed Super Constellations coming and going and in the 1990's I had a remarkable opportunity to sit in the Captain's seat in a retired TransCanada Airlines L1049 SuperConnie equipped with the wingtip tanks and a completely intact original flight deck. To get to the front of the flight deck I remember that you almost had to suck in your stomach and squeeze down a narrow aisle of tall metal stacks on either side containing all of the electronic gear such as tube radios and the like. My 5 year old daughter sat in the right hand seat. That was fantastic. Great memories and thank you very much for this video!
Thank you so very much for for sharing your wonderful memories of our travel back in the good old days.
GREAT VID!!! I really enjoyed seeing the variety of aircraft, from a time when flying, or simply going to the airport on a sunny afternoon was still fun since you never knew what you might see. I ESPECIALLY enjoyed the pics of the VC-10, WHAT A FIND FOR SUCH A RARE YET ICONIC AIRCRAFT!!! Keep up the good work my fellow aviation friend...Nate from Pittsburgh ;-)
What a wonderful time it was thanks for the videoe
Wow what a great footage, planes of my youth, loved subbed, thanks!
You are very welcome Antti, I am thrilled to hear you enjoyed this. Of course our streaming service JetFlix.TV has a lot of this kind of footage and films that people can enjoy unlimited access to. The monthly subscription fee is not very much, so maybe you could have a look and give it a try. Think about it.
What a good quality old video of airlines do you have !
my first flight was with a DC 7C from Amsterdam to Dutch papua Nieuw Guinea via Island Anchorage alaska, tokio Japan to Biak, very nice airplane, we even got a certificate when we flew over the north pole. this was in 1959. never forget it.
Hello Hans, What a fantastic first flight!!! Most people travelled by ship in those days.
@@JetFlix it was a nice flight. i was in the Dutch Marine Core and send there after Indonesia had invaded New Guinea. the whole plane was full with Marines. I spend 1 year there. Thanks for your reply.
Great video, excellent production.
Great video of vintage aviation history! My first flight was on a 707... in 1972 from San Jose, CA. to Oakland (10 minute flight). We picked up more passengers and fuel then took off to Honolulu. It was "Western Airlines...the only way to fly."
Gosh you are lucky to have that memory. Ten minutes sectors on a Boeing 707 .. that is the stuff of dreams! Literally!
Wao! Im like your channel👌😊'cause love the old planes from 50's to 70's👍
Awesome, thanks for viewing our content. You can also try our streaming service www.jetflix.tv and you can use the promo vode youtube for a nice discount.
2:20 the former airport of Munich, fortunately it moved out of town, it only had one runway. What a chaos that would be today!
I was unaware the MUC changed locations over the decades, thank you kindky for pointing out this historical fact.
@@JetFlix Yes it was too close to the city and too loud, and the governor of Bavaria was a pilot himself those days. He had a feeling for aviation, so he used all his power to decide we need a bigger one. The move was in 1992, and the new airport was named after him "Franz Josef Strauss".
Awesome vid!!
I am glad you liked it😎
Thank you
You're welcome
Awesome! Thanks.
JUST WONDERFUL THX
I love how the planes were silver instead of white
Yes, the CP Air iconic orange and red colour scheme with the silver belly was absolutely fantastic and decades ahead of its time in terms of graphic design when it came out in 1968.
Beautiful. Just beautiful.
Great video, nice music.
Thank you very much!
Those were the great days of aviation. When I was a little boy my first plane ride was on a Douglas dC-4. The passengers were dressed for the occasion, and common courtesy reigned supreme. Todays passengers are very rude and obnoxious with no self dignity. I hate to fly these days because of having to deal with people with no manners!
Totally agree, what happened to humanity over the past 50 years. Today, with so many air travelers covered in tattoos, piercings, behaving like baboons.. totally grotesque. Back in the 1950s and 1960s air travelers looked and acted professionally.
@@JetFlix Yes! when we were kids and we had to fly we dressed up as if we were going to church. Yes sir and yes Ma'am were the norm for us kids. This generation of today are rarely taught any self discipline and never felt the sting of a belt to the bottom!
Oh look! Same flight attendants from the 1940's, still working for Air Canada!
😅😉
Wow! Never really saw those baffles on the back of the DC-8 engines before! How could I have missed seeing them?
My first airplane ride would have been in 1959, Schiphol, Netherlands to LaGuardia, New York. I always wonder what the aircraft type was, but the others with me on that flight are long gone. I was fortunate to experience flying, namely from Virginia to New York (now JFK), to Holland & back in the mid 1960s until the mid 1970s through my Dutch oma. Civil times back then. Folks did dress up. Started out on KLM DC-8s, but over time Oma would go to charter companies (MartinAir), and even TWA (my first 747 ride). Good memories.
kolbpilot Lucky you! What I have done is make a list of every flight I have ever taken, writing down motive, Airline, date, flight number, aircraft, and specific aircraft registration. As I am much younger I have been able to get info from 70% of flights I have taken from the confirmation emails on my fathers old e-mail. However there are older flights that My family tells me I took, but don’t know anything else. It would be impossible for you to do the same if it takes you all the way back to 1959! But you can say you’ve flown on the 747 and probably dc-8 or some classic airliner! If you want to recompile your info I would try and go to Airliners.net and go to the forum with the info you know and ask. Some expert there probably knows. The coolest plane I’ve flown on is the a340-600
I recall my flight on a Constellation in the same year. I was only 7 YO but remember that really cool aircraft with the triple tail.
Outstanding !!!
Thank you .. glad you liked it. More where that came from!
Awesome vídeo congratulations
I like how it say high graphics, we don't want
High graphics it's supposed to be old and a bad camera, that gives it the nostalgia we
Need to keep ourselves entertained with planes long story short its supposed to be old and bad love old plane and airlines they beautiful. :)
Nowhere in my video is the word “high graphics” used in any way, shape, or form, so I’m not sure what you’re talking about here.
My Dad used to fly the TCA Northstars out of Montreal. Used to be called Dorval--lol. Nice seeing glimpses of the Viscounts and Vangards as well. Spent many hours on those.
Amazing stuff! Was your Dad a pilot? He was lucky to be around during that era. Did he take colour slides and movies back then? As we are always looking for that sort of material for our productions.
If you pay attention at some parts of this excellent archives document, you will notice, at some point, the original YUL terminal from where your father flew his DC-4 M (NorthStar) in the late 40's and the 50's :)
My first flight was into Dorval on a TCA Super-Constellation. We had to take a taxi from the international terminal to get to the domestic terminal to board a Northstar for our connecting flight.
Yes, excellent film. Thanks.
Muito lindo e empolgante ver os Aviões daquela época, bateu aquela saudade 👏👏👏
Rare CL-44 with Flying Tigers. Neat.
That’s awesome!
amazing !!!
Thank you!
This is a great archive! I've been searching around RUclips for footage of YUL as I remembered it from my youth...difficult to find.
Do you have anything archival from Montreal's Canadair plant in the early / mid 60's?
As a youngster I remember frequently seeing Lockheed F-104 Starfighters flying overhead, taking off and landing in St. Laurent.
Great stuff...thanks for the post!
I like the props on the engines. Looks cooler than what we have now.
turboprop aircraft never ceased to be manufactured ... if you want to see turboprop aircraft just go to a regional airport .. although modern turboprop will never have the style they had
Nice to see the 727s at Renton. I have at least 4 DC-8 models 1/200 scale in this clip , Air Canada , CP Air, Canadian Pacific and SAS. Interesting to see Ilyushin il-62 from Czech Airlines and another il-62 (perhaps government?) at Montreal. Thumbs up for a really excellent clip.👍👊
Awesome, glad you appreciated this footage. Most filmed here in Canada. As far as I am aware there is pretty much no other CPAir DC-8 quality video footage anywhere else on the internet. It is hard to find.
The first time I went to visit LAX was when I was 7 years old. I remember most of the following airplanes.707, DC-8, 727, Convair 880, Convair 990, DeHavilland Comet IV, DC-3, DC-4, DC-6, DC-7, Lockheed Constellation, Fokker Friendship, Fairchild Hiller, Lockheed L-100 Hercules, Lockheed L-188 Electra, Vickers Viscount and even the Vickers VC-10.
Very nice memories
This Cool!
VERY COOL
I used to love airports in the seventies - with the wonderful aroma of kerosene everywhere.
I remember that too. I miss those days. At night you'd see big neon signs on the buildings, like "Fly Eastern Airlines"
Me too Brian!
Don’t know if your being facetious, but I miss it too
I Got to smell the jets while working for Dobbs house caterers for airlines in 1970/71 as a truck driver,TWA,Allegheny
,Eastern,Delta, Delta&TWA had the best food we got LOTS of perks I supplied Mom&Dad w milk I sometimes wud get gallon+ some flights,we were "Supposed" to pitch it....yeah right,ditto food,that cheese chicken breast was GOURMET!!.,Hot wash cloths saw them in trash we got so many!!...Good ole days.
As a child, I developed a sentimental memory for the jet fuel fragrance. Now I work at an airport and up to this day, before starting my shifts, I use to get close to the fence, inhale the exhaust fumes, and think, "yeah! now I'm ready!". Aviation enthusiasts are a really weird bunch.
Hated the music, missed the actual sound of aircraft engines.
Some of these clips might have already had music over them originally.
@Solomon, Just a little trick: go to the original video to watch the whole thing for the sound of aircraft engines ;)
That’s because they are silent, there’s no audio.
In 1968 I was drafted into the US Army for the Vietnam War. On the day of my induction into the Army I was flown on a charter flight from Philadelphia to the Army Airfield at Fort Benning, Georgia... in a beautiful DC-6 aircraft. After my 3 years in the Army I flew many times in the next 40 years on business and pleasure trips. When I was in the Army I was an Aviation Parts Supply Sergeant, in Nha Trang, South Vietnam and at Crissy Army Air Field, San Francisco from 1968-71...
Great to a Viscount again
JETFLIX AND CHILL ....
emperormiester ...... Merely liking this comment is not enough, laugh out loud funny. Well done. 😄
DC-3 is one of the best airplanes ever produced in my opinion. That thing was a beast and like a street fighter. Take damage and keep going.
davidca96 And a few of them are still around earning a living...
Beautiful film
I would have loved to have been plane spotting in the 70s. These days they all look the same apart from size
Exactly .. with just Airbus and Boeing dominating today it is pretty boring by comparison.
The 707, one of the best platforms ever.
CLASSIC BRTISH AIRLINES.
VICKERS VISCOUNT DC8,WOW!
You got me with that American BAC 1-11 taking off. I flew an ex American 1-11 corporate config. N5034 then VR-BHS, then finally N333GB
Nice
Was looking for my late dad in this footage...he flew alot in the 1960's and 1970's going to meetings ......mainly in canada but ventured to u.s. of a few times...but this is fantastic footage of some great great liverys...
Thank you Zion. I am a collector of 35mm slides of aircraft. Any chance your dad took slides of planes during his frequent travels?
@@JetFlix ummmm....we had lots...but our house burned down in the 80's....taking most of our prized pics n slides amongst other valuables.......ugggghhhhhh.....
I am so sorry to hear that sad news. Thank you for responding.
Someone take me to this era plz😭
It was a fabulous era. Not many younger aviation fans realize how special it was. The last vestiges we have today from this era the few Soviet era aircraft flying in Russia and the DPRK.
Precioso tiempo de las aerolineas y bellos aviones. Muy nostálgico volverlos a ver. Gracias👍
I don't know why but looking at them old prop liners brought back a memory of me standing close to a Fokker F50 when i was a kid and chuntering "Look at size at cylinders on that." LOOL and this old bloke was like "It's a turboprop, they don't have cylinders." Soooo embarrassing xD.
Nice collection but where are the Connstellations, 880s & 990s?
Sorry my previous comment misleading. I meant to say the DC 8 has those interesting black inlets.
I never knew of the DC-4M before now.
The Canadian Pacific, later CP Air jets were beautiful. My city only has 1,000,000 people, it's hard to believe it had it's own 747 routes.
One idea that changed the life..
Ah yes, the dawn of the jet age!

parabéns pelo Vídeo
I remember immigrating to the united states from tri idad and tobago at twelve years old ,im 54 years old now and i never forgot the eastern airlines 727 that brought me to the greatest country on Gods green earth ,what a wonderful machine.
3:45 ANA B-727-100 is flying!
This video is treasure! Meanwhile 3:33 they are cleaning it like it’s Covid19
It took 55 years for airlines to take cabin cleaning seriously!!! Aint that the truth!!😂😂😂
The music is upbeat!
Thank you for that .. so much discusdion here about the music and not the video content.
Oh if America could be like this again...
Hermoso vídeo.
My first time on a plane was an Ansett-ANA Viscount. Not that I recall it, I was 1 at the time but I do have a photo of my mother at the bottom of the stairs carrying me. The aircraft was VH-RMI which crashed 4 years later killing all on board.
Yikes. What a story Neil.
magnificent! how did you get your hands on this?
We are in the business of sourcing amazing classic airline footage as well as filming it, and started back in 1991. We have good contacts with archives and government agencies here in Canada. Also, we digitized Air Canada's entire 16mm film archive several years ago, and those films were released on DVD. But the DVD business has now died so all our work from the past and moving forward is presented to our subscribers at JetFlix.TV.
We are in the business of sourcing classic airline films for our subscribers at JetFlix TV. We will soon be releasing "History of Canadian Airlines 1960s" which will contain a lot more of this broadcast quality footage.
I only knew British aircraft in detail, so I've only recently noticed the US DC -9 ,I think, has interesting black inlets , perhaps ?, on the nose, below the flight deck .
I would like to know what they are ?
