Before "DIA", there was Stapleton Field, and here it is. :-)

Watch for United 720s & 727s, UAL 727 "QC" (Quick Change-RARE!) American 707 & 747, Texas International DC-9, & Continental 727.

And at I think a different locale, check out the TWA 707 Cargoliner (RARE!), Braniff 727, & Northwest Orient 747.

Also, watch for a Beechcraft "Twin Bonanza" .

Not to be missed!

  • Looks like mid to late 70s. Love all those old fuel swiggers. Remember the days when you could smell the kerosene as you stepped out of your car at the airport??

  • The date is in the video title, LOL. :-)

  • (0:29-0:33) and a nice shot of one of the early UA 727-222s with the 3rd floor level exit forward of the wing...aircraft right!! N I C E Christian!! I ve never seen a live action shot of one.

  • Good call Eric; United also had two extra doors (One on each side) on their DC-8-61s, & 62s, just aft of the wing trailing edge.

    Some 707-300 for various carriers also had a similar set-up; an extra door on each side aft of the wing, but before the main rear doors. :-)

see all
