My first ever flight in 1958 aged 3, was on a TWA Connie from Athens to Rome....still remember it vividly, my dad was a ground mechanic for them for 13years....
Reminds me of my trip in 1956 (I was 7) on a TWA Connie from Chicago to LAX for my grandparents' 50th wedding anniversary. I got to go to Disneyland and was pretty hot stuff back in our small town in Michigan. We were "tourist" and had box lunches too. I still have the tickets and the pictures taken with my Kodak Brownie camera! Peace and thanks for posting!
That pilot might be my late father! We have very few photos of him in EAL uniform. Can you tell me the date and route of this flight? I think I can get the tail number from the film. Thanks. You can look me up on Facebook or Twitter to respond.

Many thanks for this great footage of the most beautiful airplane ever built, the Lockheed 1049 G Constellation, so beautiful in its TWA livery!
