PhantomTweak Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Great pictures! I love the period photographs. That style seems to make it "right". That was always my father's favorite airplane. He has a LOT of hours in DC-8's. Many "Sea Stories" about them too :) Thanks for yet another great post Aharon. Pat☺ [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Had a thought...then there was the smell of something burning, and sparks, and then a big fire, and then the lights went out! I guess I better not do that again!
