they should run it Atl-MCO-Atl once daily. Full white glove treatment. Retro uniforms for flight crew. That would be a cool way to go to Disney...

You would actually have to look out the window, with the noise and vibration , earbuds and tablet would be rendered useless. Maybe they would reintroduce the "Three cigarette pack" on the dinner trays.

Can you smoke cee-gars with the u-fly? The head set was left over from the B-17 with the rubber ear cups. You hung the mike on the side window handle and let it dangle. Always sit on a DAL blankie.(Keeps your pants from becoming shiny from contact with the rich red Corinthian leather.) Copilot's window was the basic outflow valve so you froze your toccus off in the winter.

Here’s another idea. The Navy has the Blues. Air Force have the thunderbirds. At their roots, they are about recruiting. Supposedly there is a pilot shortage coming, maybe Delta should be going to air shows, fly-ins, etc with the DC-7 to recruit pilots?
