Interesting promotional film, but this is definitely NOT from the 1960s. I lived there from '64-'67, and I can safely say from the fashions, automobiles, and aircraft shown in the film that this is from at least a decade before I lived there. In fact, it's quite possible it dates from the late 1940s or very early 1950s.

The airport footage was probably shot before 1949. According to Wikipedia, the Swedish airline ABA´s DC-3s and DC-4s (all marked SWEDISH AIR LINES, as at 6:05 in the clip) were retired in 1948, and in 1950 ABA ceased operations to become one of the holding companies of SAS.

Das sind n i c h t die 60er Jahre:
eher die späten 1940er Jahre, die Autos, die Uhren, die Frisuren der Frauen, die Flugzeuge.... alles wie in den späten 40er Jahre.
Bitte verbessern Sie den Titelfehler.
