  • "This is a full-scale Metropolitan wing. In this giant test device, it is being put through the equivalent of 50 years of airline service. That's more service than any airliner would ever see." Oh, ye of little faith... :D

  • The mighty roar! I love it!

  • Excellent video - on a number of levels. Watching and listening to this film illustrates just how much the world has changed over the past 55 years - a LOT!

    Oh, and looks like maybe 1956, as they reference the F-102.

  • Great promotional movie on the old Convairliners! However, it seems this film was made somewhere closer to 1955 judging by some of the cars driving past the assembly plant and the fact that the Convair XFY-1 Pogo (shown flying in this film) first flew in August of 1954.
