That was before my time as far as listening to pop music, so the first time I heard that song is when TWA licensed it. So it's always been the TWA song to me.



707-*31 ❤️

I flew on a TW 707, JFK-ORD in May 1975. I suspect it was continuing on to either LAX or SFO (the arrival time at ORD would allow for a late evning arrival on the west coast with the time difference). Return flight was a 727. Alas, the 707 was in the mid-70s colors



Only time I flew on a Dual Globes TWA plane was my first flight on TW, a 747-131, JFK-LAX in March 1975. We went tech at MCI (Kansas City) due to a problem with the #3 engine. Left NY at Noon, supposed to arrive in LA around 230 PST, actually arrived around 9 PM PST, which was Midnight Eastern. Not much fun to spend 12 hours on a plane, even if it was the Queen of the Skies 😐
