I have a fond memory of my dad and I touring the first Cathay Pacific 747 to land in Vancouver. I think it was 1969 or 1970. It was the start of my life long interest in transportation; from airplanes to ships to cars to ancient and modern transportation routes and navigation.

+Kathryn Willis Nice memories to have Kathryn. As well, it was around the time of the 1st moon landing when all seemed possible. My interest in transportation favours icebreakers, e.g. kzbin.info/www/bejne/epe3q6eOm8pjprs

I flew first class in a 747 back in 1970, traveling alone from Chicago to LA. I was so intimidated by everything, (I was 15) I never went upstairs to see the first-class lounge.

+J. D. Even steerage class in jumbos was nicer then than what we have now with Premium Economy and Economy Plus.
