        I remember stairs and a lounge on a flight to L.A. in 1981.

        Close.. it was "Illusions" by Richard Bach, and she sent it to me before I met her (I think), because she knew my father had died.

        American pulled 50 seats to install the bar during economic slump. The bar lasted only a few months. Economy improved, bar lounge vanished.

        True. AA ordered 747s in 1966, delivered in 1970 during a recession —> over-capacity. Lounges a mktg gimmick to fill the other 250 seats.

        Not this liberal. What do you non-liberals envision for your future in a trumpian society? Just curious.

        My personal favorite is the upper deck on the 747 😎

        The original top deck with the wedge-shaped bar was impressive. Only got to try it once, Tokyo-Vancouver with CP.
