This is to the Jet Age, as the DC-3 was to earlier passenger service.

LOL. Seriously. You’d think in 50 years we would cut that time in half in general, but it wasn’t to be. Speed wise, we’ve been stuck in in limbo for 40 years. Those were innovative times. We need those times again.

Actually the UK did not endorse the decimal and metric system until 1965, after this video was made. Most of the change did not start until 1971 with currency and motorways are still in MPH.

I know… just being a goof
Indeed.. very cool old but goody footage. The way these announcer spoke back then! Cracks me up! So serious. I sort of miss those days.

lol it’s was a compliement to you. I’m glad you use the metric system. Anyway back on topic, good to see some vintage footage of 707 and Pan Am.

There are more than one American Scientists! LOL!
It’s true tho that under normal circumstances we use the imperial scale. Metric is much easier tho. Everything based on ten. milli, micro, nano, pico, etc.. it’s way better.

Well your one of a kind lol but most people in the U.S don’t use the metric system.

The Americans tend to use fahrenheit instead of celsius. If it were 64°C then most people would not be able to survive.

ell how cool is that. Too bad the airlines aren’t all about customers like that now. Of course flying isn’t considered a luxury now, just another commodity. Thanks for sharing.
