Ja, ja, ja, ja The crew is smoking!
Thats times.
Back in the day Godfrey was one of the most trusted, beloved public figures in America. He even recorded a reassuring PSA to be broadcast in the event of an actual nuclear attack. He loved cigarettes so much that he routinely signed autographs “Best wishes by the carton.”
Both the Lockheed L-1049-C, and the Boeing Strato Cuise, had problems of failure in the engines. The plane, Boeing has had several propellers and engines torn by imbalance caused by the propellers. The most serious accident occurred in Brazil in 1952
The situation turned more serious on April 29, 1952. On
that date a P.A.W.A. Stratocruiser N1039U crashed in dense
Brazilian jungle with no survivors. Although the main
wreckage was located, No. 2 engine and propeller were
never found. Examination of the remaining pieces of No. 2
engines mount showed its failure was due to application of
forces beyond which it was designed. The cause of the
engine separation was probably an unbalanced propeller.
In the commercial L-1049 C, as Meryll off the three engines, the plane should be no passengers, that the drag provided by the helices of the three engines was stopped too long, it must also have very low power single engine that was working. But without a doubt the connie was the most elegant aircraft ever bu
The first company to use the Connie in Brazil, was Panair OF BRAZIL, an airplane crash on July 28, 1950, the city of Sapucaia do Sul, Rio Grande do Sul, the crash killed all 51 people traveling in the aircraft, which crashed into a hill in a series of communication errors crew with the tower of the airport of Porto Alegre.
In Brazil, VARIG bought three four-engine Lockheed L-1049 g and Super Constellation on 2 August 1955, the first flight to New York took off from Rio de Janeiro, with stops in Belem, Port of Spain and Ciudad Trujillo. Later the route was expanded to the south, starting in Buenos Aires
thanks!
lol yeah it’s almost like he was mouthing the words so he would be ready for his line.
Yeah, not to mention the flight crew smoking!!
the co-pilot looks about 85 years old and he doesn’t even smoke!
Wow, I just noticed this the second time I watched this video. Look closely at Dick Merrill’s mouth when Authur says “now it’s time for a Chesterfield”. It looks like Dick is saying it right at the same time..Very strange.
its a light gun signal. Its aimed at airplanes that don’t have radios. Which may have been common in the 40s. Now its mandatory, but you will still find them in towers when an airplane has a radio failure.
that’s a signalling lamp to flash at pilots if their radios failed. Although it is not used anymore regularly as there are lost comms procedures they are still found in all the towers I’ve visited.
you should fly Business or First these days, they still have metal knives and forks
Dinner served with metal knives and forks lol. Back in the day..
like to see a overhauled Connie + turboprop wold b nice
what’s that thing the guy pulls down from the ceiling in the control tower at about 4:12?
explanes why the pilots are so calm and the pilot mentions food…..smells like dinner….LOL
chesterfield, dick? No sir, but I’ll have a joint.
Chesterfield? Wasn’t that WC Field’s sons name?
Yeah flies good on one engine. At sea level, no passengers, and minimum fuel.
A)We’ve finished our climb… now it’s time for a Chesterfeild… Dick??
D)I don’t smoke Arthur … for crying out loud I’ve been flying with you for the past 12 years… can’t you remember I don’t smoke?
A)(under his breath)’hey wise guy, one more comment like that and you can find a new airline to work for’) What?? …ha ha ha… I thought he wouldnt wrap his tongue around that one twice!
Sorry folks… it’s a great film, just too many comedy possibilities! I’ll try to stop.
Ok watch this! Okay Hugh, feather four! Oh shit… time for another chesterfeild!
That “silver falcon” was a Martin 4-0-4, right?
