I was later told - when I first saw it, it didn't register at the time, when the R-40s came into service, since their side destination signs weren't lit, the white backlit side destination signs showing the terminal were removed from the R1-9s.Done for some kind of standardized parity (those aren't the words I wanna use, but I can't think of the right one - happens after a bunch of decades) maybe? Kind of a stupid thing to do though. Take an innovation from the 1920s, (the D-Types) and remove it. |
