1974 TAROM

[webmaster]

A great time to FLY. A great time to PARTY.



Was it FUN??



Short story to get you started:



A first flight to Baia Mare. One night layover. December, 1974.

Next day we found out that a ANTONOV24 flight to Sibiu crashed.



Angelica, our class mate was on that flight. They hit the mountain.

It was her first flight as a Flight Attendant.



We carried her coffin/remains to her grave. A military burial. 3 gun salvos and that was THAT.



What a way to begin a so called "flying career" !



Later on, over the years, many more of my TAROM colleagues, class of 1974, encountered the same fate. See Adriana Nicolae.......Poor soul died in a AIRBUS accident, after take off at OTOPENI.



Any comments??

Da. Pilotzii purtau arme.



Nu numai asta dar, in orice caz, nu ii punea nimeni sa-shi scoata pantofi la aeroport, precum in moschee. Precum in ziua de azi.

Aveau intrari/iesiri separate in majortitatea aeropoartelor din Europe. Erau cunoscuti si nu impersona nime pe nime. Nu aveau cum.

In US, pentru ca nu au avut porti separate pentru echipajul de zbor, (care sunt puricati pina intra la zbor, intr-un hal fara hal), acum, toate marlele de la intrarea in aeroport, ii pun pe piloti sa se descalte la gramada cu pasagerii.



Ce chestie.
