Strange Things, Interesting Things

Even though I flew for an airline which was Lockheed free, I've always had a soft spot in my heart for the Connie, especially the Super G. I think most older airline pilots feel that way as well. There is just something about it, especially in TWA colors, that gives me goosebumps to this day. Maybe it is because I grew up hanging on the fence at Midway watching those big tubs come and go. Maybe it's because I had a chance to hear in person, what my sons will likely never hear...four turbo compounds pounding down 31L. Not a sound in the world like it.
