    Introductory booklet for the Boeing 747 aircraft, published by TWA Airlines in 1970
    ..........
    If you were around in the late '60s, the intro of the mammoth Boeing 747 "Jumbo Jet" was big news, and you can relive that heady jet-set time just a bit via this booklet published in March 1970....  Informative and entertaining, with wonderful 1960s/1970 pictures of the aircraft and passengers, JFK airport, TWA personnel, etc...
    >>> 49 pages -- 3 chapters of text and photos.  Fold-out pages.  Definitely "TWA-centric"..
    >>> Please note, photos inside are black/white.  Airplane cutaway diagrams.  Cockpit and cabin photos.
    >>> Many photos of attractive stewardesses and a
    (very amusing)
    section about crew-qualifications ("girls only"!)
    >>> Technical info about the aircraft; photos inside and outside.  Some artist renderings as well.
    >>>

    I got this booklet as a young boy and had it hidden away for 50 years.
    (I well remember reading and studying it and a short time later, having my first exciting flight on a 747!!)

    747
    Bird and recall an iconic airline, airplane, and a heady time gone by.....
