I've taken a recent interest in airline history and aviation the past two years, as I started to wonder why I didn't enjoy flying nearly as much as I did as a kid in the early 1980s (at that time my family always took Eastern out of ORF and my dad had one of those lounge passes)...
It was the end of an era for my family when Eastern closed and we switched to Delta/USAir...Although I never personally flew Pan Am or TWA, my parents did regularly and hated it when they both had to close...
One of the things I miss the most is leaving our house at 12 noon for a 12:30 flight from ORF and STILL being at the gate with time to kill...
You may have already answered this before -- Did you have a favorite airplane type to fly?
