Default RE: The Man In 18C (New

Thanks very much for all that info.

My 727-100 was finished over a year ago, and only needed to be updated for this movie. That work is done, as well, and all those involved have already done the "D. B. Cooper" research.

I miss those days sometimes. I started flying as a young boy, in DC-3's and Constellations, so when the 727 came out, we all suddenly felt like the Jetsons. I remember the sound (higher-pitched than the larger engines of today) and the smell of jet fuel, and thought it was just fantastic. It must have been interesting to work around them.

Thanks again.
