First time I flew was in 1969. I do remember we had a stop somewhere between Chicago and Houston. We didn't need to change flights, so the Stewardesses took care of us. The Pilot let me sit in the cockpit. I was 4 years old. Pretty cool.

Couple of other things from the trip:

Chicago had those early black and white TV phones. We played with those while waiting for our flight.

A person with very long hair passed us and I asked my mother why the lady had a beard...
