LOL. I suspect that will be the last time I spend my birthday, or any other day, in Pacoima.

Thanks enviroian. I had to google the guy to even know who he is. Hard to tell except they are both older bald guys.

Never flew PanAm in the good old days, but flew TWA Ambassador Class in L-1011s a lot in the 80s until they folded in 1991. Brought it all back!

Thank you 1P. It brought back a lot of memories.

Thanks TheTakeOffRush. At that time, the upper deck was the First Class Lounge.

Even if you can't get tickets for the upper deck, I don't think there are any bad seats on this plane, and each section offers a unique experience.

Thank you Majuki. Looks like you had a great time as well. Indeed, the only difference I could see from the menu was the caviar service in the Upper Deck.
