She's so elegant.

I crossed the Atlantic many times, in the 70's and 80's, flying DC-8-63 or Boeing 707.

The A340 reminds me of those wonderful years.

Very nice video !

[matthiashaenni]

@hendriktoch Oh wow... never experienced a flight in a 707 or DC-8! Cool to remember that! Thanks very much for watching!!!

[matthiashaenni]

@flyingxk Thank you very much!!! Oh sorry to hear that the A340 stole your job... 747 at the end of your career, wasn't it?!

You should send this in a personal message to SWISS's youtube channel asking who that was. It would be really cool if the pilot saw it!
