Great video! I spent alot of time at LGA as a kid, just observing with my dad. We lived close by. Used to go to the Marine Air Terminal observation deck quite a bit too. As an adult, I flew from there often. As outdated as it is, I still love LGA. Nice footage of some great planes and carriers we will never see again. Thanks!

Same for me. I was there all the time as a kid.

Lived in Flushing. Took flying lessons at Flushing Airport.

I shot this on 8mm movie film when I was a kid.

Glad you enjoyed it!!!

I wish it was still like that today

I saw your videos of LGA. Cool. I shot this film

at LGA when I was kid. Keep up the good work.

Dude, you rule. Thanks for sharing this video. I loved the National Airlines DC-10.

[sodadaze]

Thanks. I spent many hours as a kid standing

at the observation deck filming and photographing the classic airliners. The new jets just aren't as interesting. The smokier

and noisier the better.

How 'bout that Air New England FH-227! The beer can! The Cadillac of air travel!

i wash i could have seen LGA like that, by the way what happend to the music?

[SenhordoBonfim]

Love this footage. Typical WMG b.s. You know what would make a good soundtrack? Audio of a movie projector..lol...thanks for posting this!

A great blast from the past ....seems like LGA was like that only yesterday.

Thanks for uploading such hard to find videos of a long gone era. So many of those airlines are gone and so few today, with even less soon because of mergers and regional jets replacing main line jets. If you have any more such videos or copies, I would like to see them or maybe even ebay.

Thanks,

I took all those 727s for granted back in the day.

Wow this is awesome! 

[EnnCamp]

WOW !!! This was a great video. I was a kid in the 70's. Please re install this video, with original sound. If no sound make a narration. All the best. great planes !!!

I remember taking a boy scout trip to LGA to see the new terminals under construction. They even let us onto a DC jet that was parked and not in service. Can't do that these days. Darn terrorists, ruining a kids fun.
