Es war unvergesslich, ich habe das Brummen immer noch im Ohr. Die Fenster waren groß, die Sitze bequem ,der Service persönlich. Und nicht nur das Flugzeug war elegant...

I remember flying in a TWA Constellation as a kid in the 50s. It was a comfortable plane and I remember the seats were so comfortable. We flew over the Grand Canyon and the pilot circled a few time so we could get a good view. Shortly after, they stopped doing this because of a collision between two airliners. I remember friendly service. Now, they pack you in like sardines and our major airplane manufacturer cuts corners to save money and allowed 346 people to die in interest of profit. Everything I have read about Lufthansa is this airline is high quality, efficient and very safe. You got what you paid for there.

Drang da gerade angenehmer Flug an mein Ohr ? Gut 15 Stunden nach New York mit Zwischenlandung in Gander. TOLL ! Reiseflughöhe 4.100 Meter, also genau dort wo die meisten Turbulenzen stattfinden. Auch die Kolbenmotoren laufen oder besser liefen so herrlich "LEISE". Im übrigen ist dieses Flugzeug mit seinen vier Kolbenmotoren häufig mit nur noch 3 laufenden Motoren in New York Idlewild gelandet. Entweder hatte einer davon mal wieder Feuer gefangen oder stand einfach so still. Darüber hat sich damals fast kein Passagier mehr aufgeregt. War fast normal. Allerdings war die Lockheed L-1649A Starliner aber auch für ihre Zeit das modernste und schnellste Passagierflugzeug welches so am Himmel rumdröhnte und SCHÖN und sehr ELEGANT war es auch. Aber auch für heutige Verhältnisse winzig. Am Airport in Düsseldorf steht oder stand eine dieser Maschinen. Sogar auf der Aussichtsterrasse. Ich wiederhole : Erstaunlich klein. As time goes by.

Adding my voice to the choir of 'ah, the good old days' when flying was an event! You dressed, you had manners, you knew how to act in public. I'm glad they did away with smoking on planes as it never made any sense to have two sections. I actually was a smoker when they had this go into effect. Now you can barely get your suitcase on a plane and have it arrive at the same destination. People are rude, seats are thin and uncomfortable and the crew is all stressed out.

When I was a child in the 1960’s my family started to fly to Spain for our holidays. Every flight was exciting. All passengers were smartly dressed, no jeans, trainers or scruffy clothes. It was just like on this video. On the down side, it was noisy, everyone smoked and the cabins weren’t well pressurised. Many people vomited so ‘sick bags’ were in every seat pocket. I remember one flight where were all passengers started to get pains in the ears. Turned out the rear door wasn’t properly closed. Answer - the plane descended and carried on the journey at a lower altitude. Madness!

You are absolutely right! I was a flight attendant with Lufthansa from 1982 - 2015 and had the honor to meet their former flight attendant No. 1, Mrs. Kathke. She joined Lufthansa in 1955 and later changed to flight attendant training dept. I met her during my initial training and she was truly a Grande Dame of aviation and was highly respected by the entire company. She represented all the glamour aviation was like in that movie, as you said, normal people with good manners, values and respect. Unfortunately she passed away many years ago, and with her, all the simple things and different times were gone, too. But as a passenger today, good manners, values and respect should never go out of fashion. Even with all this high tech stuff.

So ist es eine tendenziell Darstellung. Bitte die Unfälle mit Connies entsprechenden Unfallkategorien zuordnen und die dann mit DC4 / DC 6 / DC 7 vergleichen. UND noch unterscheiden die Unfälle bis ca. 1967 ( Rückzug aus Linendienst) von den Unfällen die danach bei zweifelhaften Buschflugzeug-Betreibern sich ereigneten

The golden age of air travel,sixty years later it's not so glamorous is it. Lufthansa only operated four Starliners and a couple of years later with the arrival of the Boeing 707 the Starliner was pushed on to less important Lufthansa routes.

Very true and certainly compared with UK, but the Germans were given much encouragement and finance from USA and above all worked so hard for their deserved post war success at this time.

@@SDD3204 the U.K. also received finance from the USA under the Marshall Plan after WWII. I think the difference is that West Germany only had one way to go - onward and upwards without looking back. People in the U.K. however continue to bang on about winning WWII (usually overlooking the fact we were part of the Allied Forces which won together)

@@michduncg It seems I fell for the myth that UK did not get Marshall Plan Aid after the war, and that such MP aid was purely aimed at European countries in danger of becoming Communist, through their austerity. UK was not only psychologically burdened with looking backwards but with unrealisable feelings of current post war responsiblilities for the Empire and the desire to maintain their world prestige. UK was bankrupt and yet burdened with responsibilities and massive wartime loans from USA to pay back too. The thread of a nuclear attack from the east was also very high in our priorities too and I believe 50% of UK's rather meagre GDP was devoted to defence for many years too. Then there was the imementation of The Beveridge Plan, NHS and Welfare post war too. I certainly found the contrast in wealth and appearances between UK and WG in 1963 quite extraordinary as a 7 year old. IMHO UK did not catch up post-war until firmly in EEC/EU under Tony Blair gd&r...

By 1955, West Germany had already overtaken the UK in terms of GDP. The Marshall Plan played a rather small role in this, however, and it was only loans that had to be repaid. The UK received the funds of the Marshall Plan as a gift from the USA. A big problem for the UK was that after WW2 it was no longer possible to exploit the colonies to the same extent as before.
