Wonderfully nostalgic shots, Carlos. Great lighting and atmosphere also. :)

Thank you Lars, I think we all have that nostalgic feeling when we see Pan Am. Knowing its history makes and seen a plane, video or so makes the feeling more intense. I wish it comes back.

I remember the first time I saw it. My father took us to the airport to say goodbye to his aunt. She departed in a Pan Am 747.  With my age and height, I saw the plane as a monster, a giant, I since then fell in love with the 747. It departed in the evening almost night. A picture forever.

I never saw again a Pan Am plane or a 747. It is very difficult to spot 747's in my country. I've had the chance to spot Air Force One when Obama came, the Atlas Cargos when Lady Gaga visited on tour and The Iron Maden one. But it is not an usual plane in our airport :'(

I spotted the Concorde once on its world tour :)

Wonderful Carlos, especially that last one.  I have fond memories of Pan Am.  They even used the Pan Am name on the shuttle in 2001 A Space Odyssey.  I never thought it would go under, sadly it did.

Thank you Jack!. Interesting, I was not aware they used the name of Pan Am for that shuttle.

Oh yeah Carlos, it's iconic in that movie.  I loved the way Kubrick did that.  The shuttle heads to the station and it's a Pan Am livery.  So cool.

:) PanAm was the 747's launch customer, right? As was United for the 777.

 

Lady Gaga needs a Cargo 747 for her equipment? Wow... :unsure::rolleyes:

Yes Lars Pan Am pushed for the 747. Not sure about United and the 777

And yes LG brought Atlas to  CR. Lots of equipment a brief of it on the second video. She used the National Stadium. The third one is the arrival of Iron Maiden
