From an old timer

I agree with the message about why we board on the left on the modern day aircraft. I first started flying in my career on DC-6's. On those, boarding was on the right up forward and on the left back aft.

We sure have come a long way since the DC-6's and the Connies to the state-of-the-art Airbus 380 and the Boeing 787 "Dreamliner."
