It's September of 1987 and Piedmont Airlines has recently taken delivery of its first ever widebody jets. Unlike other U.S. domestic airlines, Piedmont's 767-200s offer an international First Class cabin configured 2-1-2. The seats are wider, well padded and offer a generous 140° recline. With the USAir group having recently purchased Piedmont and a merger looming, the time to enjoy Piedmont's excellent First Class service is sooner than later. As such, you can barely contain your excitement as you gaze through the gate windows at your shiny new 767-200 named "City of Charlotte". The aircraft is resplendent in its blue and white Piedmont livery and when boarding for First Class passengers is announced, you're amongst the first to board.

Your window seat at 3A is as supremely comfortable as your expertly crafted Bloody Mary is deliciously spicy. Turning your attention to this flight's dinner menu, you take another tasty pull off your drink and savor the delicious looking foods soon to be served...
