I have no direct memories of the plane, but we used to fly Pan Am 747s between Venezuela and the US when I was a kid. I do vaguely remember Pan Am, and I've somehow been infected with a vague romance towards the 747.

Friends of ours used to sometimes go to Maiquetia to watch the weekly Concorde flight between Caracas and London take off - I kinda wish my parents had done that with us, too. Needless to say, I've never been on one. But once in I think the 80s, my grandparents were flying from New York to London on British Airways on vacation, first class, and somehow ended up getting offered seats on the Concorde instead. Obviously, they took the offer.
