They don't serve meals like that anymore. 
Love the Convair shots.

The Coronado's dumping fuel in that pic, the vents were located in the outboard 'carrots'. I hope they don't try an F-111 style 'dump and burn'! The pax would all want to leave.........

And that guy riding on the BACK of the DC8 is SERIOUSLY unhinged!  

How about the TWA 707 (I think...) unloading the Mk 1 Ford GT40 then?  

And the 'Vintage TWA 747 photo' is actually a South African Airlines aircraft, it's just being serviced by a TWA lift truck.
