Neat, especially the reconstruction of the 747 in his garage.
Reminds me of the effort this guy went through in re-creating a VIA train of his youth:

Thanks for sharing.
I especially like the photo of "Clipper Class," which PA rolled out as cabin/service for full fare passengers. I remember how the cabin was segregated and pax received complimentary headsets (vinyl tubes, really) and alchoholic beverages.
Clipper Class morphed into a seperate 8-across Business Class and I beleive that PA was the first US carrier to have 3-class international service.
Was only in the pointy-end once (FRA-DEL) and recall the caviar service and rack of lamb carved seatside. Seating and IFE are much better today; the food is not.
