1950 Captial Airlines Promo Film

Post by cflord »

Guys, here is a link to an old 1950 Capital Airlines Promo Film. The paper trail back then, to book just one passenger was crazy. The film is not long and very interesting. I had a big smile on my face just thinking about how much computers have advanced the airline industry.

The film also motivated me to download EightyFiftyFive's beautiful Capital Airlines repaint. This beautiful repaint also includes Taildraggin68's Red Interior repaint. The airplane and interior repaint are a perfect match for each other. Thanks EightyFiftyFive and Taildraggin68 for a stunning combination of excellence!

Suddenly the Apollo moon landing program doesn't seem quite as impressive as it once was.

Nice Cliff! Gonna watch now I think, before I head to sleep. Just an FYI, if you didn't know- you can link your video using a full screenshot, instead of just a text link... just use [youtube][/youtube] around the link, and remember to change https to just http- like this:

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I8rS6y9hf9A[/youtube]

Gonna go and watch some Connies now, thanks!

Cheers-
Joe

Thanks Joe, I didn't know how to link the YouTube video links this way. I'll give it a try. Thanks

I tried it and I guess I did not get what you were trying to tell me Joe as it didn't work. This is what I tried: http://www.[youtube]youtube.comwatch?v=18rS6y9hf9A[/youtube]. Can you please show me what it should look like?
