This brings me back to the days(1990′s) when my dad used to fly a Boeing 707, a true classic “muscle jet”!!!

I’m an airline dispatcher at United, and it’s amazing to see that much of the technology is still the same as in this video. We still use ARINC to contact flights, we still send text messages to the cockpit, all of the ATC commands are the same, the planning process is the same, really very interesting. The technology behind the planning is new, we now flight plan to take advantage of modern wind data and save fuel. Also flights no longer need to issue position reports. Still well done.

Wish I had been around back then. People were alot nicer. Not to mention, flying on real airplanes. Not the plastic new ones now.

Indeed. All technology does for us today is give us the excuse to be lazy and fat.

Yes, I agree somewhat, but technology by itself doesn’t change mindsets, alter belief systems, or make one slothful. Rather, it’s a rudderless mind consciously filling itself (and by extension the minds of its progeny) with more and more immorality of every kind from cinema, music, the “arts,” etc. Sow to the cultural wind, reap the cultural whirlwind. We’re now engulfed in that whirlwind.
