Airport PAST #10: Early Miami International Airport part 2
ฝัง

- The MIA look into the past of airport action takes us to the era of dominance by Eastern Airlines and the emergence of Air Florida, nowhere near as massive as Eastern was a regional powerhouse and beloved favorite!
You must remember, the clips are 50 and 60 years old meaning the quality is nothing like the HD images we see today. Good cameras were available back then but were expensive and most shooters were not recording planes...even news networkd cameras were of poor cheap quality as this was not a subject matter - that did not mattered.
Anyhow just as the 1st Miami Int;l did, this one will have some scenes that'll blow your socks off....enjoy!

Best comment on this board!
this is incredible footage, Im in the process of buying a model of an eastern tristar they are such beautiful birds. Thank you so much for compiling this its simply spectacular
Awesome! Brought back memories of the Miami Airport I grew up with.
That's my goal, thanks for the support!
Miss Eastern Airlines so much 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Absolutely fantastic! Eastern, Braniff, Ecuatoriana 720s & 707, VIASA, Faucett L1011, and so much more. Keep the videos coming. 👍🏽
Much appreciate that comment!
Those Happy Days a great memories. Aviateca, Air Panama, TACA , TAN, Mexicana , Ecuatoriana, Faucett, AereoPeru Aereocondor all those airlines from Central and Latin America not longer with us surely missed😭😢
Love love love love love! And this really shows off the little-known variants to the EA hockeystick livery; thick stripes, white crown, thick stripes, silver crown, thin stripes, silver crown, bare nacelles on tail-engined a/c, painted nacelles on tail-engined a/c, etc. So many subtleties in the differences over the years.
Thank you Sosai glad I covered all the bases!
Wide body heaven
Of course we expect a Pan Am 747 or Eastern l-1011 but a Braniff 747sp? Wow!
Continental's 747 too.
Air Florida, looks like a mess to me!
Aero Mexico bare metal DC10 ❤
Thanks for sharing
I should have tossed in the TWA 747 too, but have save some goodies for part 3!
Air Florida had such a modern logo for it's time, with the shadowed letters and AF on the tail and all in lowercase. The metallic blue and in green on on pic I saw looks so cool.
yep it was, notice the registation on 29:55, this is N62AF, this is the particular Air Florida 737 that was later lost in an accident in Washington DC
I remember flying National to Miami and Air Sunshine to Key West when I was a kid!! Wow!! blast from the past. And you didn't go to Disney World if you didn't fly Eastern back in the day!!!
Very nice! Even a BI Bac111. Thank you. Cheers
One of the incidents I remember that showed in this video was a bomb threat to a Branniff International DC-8’s during Branniff torment times competition with American Airlines and Southwest Airlines
Another treasure chest! Thanks so much for doing these! 👍👍👍
Thanks for acknowledging the hard work that it takes to put these together and bigger thanks for supporting my vids!
SPECTACULAR video! Thanks so much for posting it!!!
Thanks for checking it out!
Starboard, I LOVE your vids! Took me back to the Seventies, when I started flying!
Thank you Anthony, happy to do it!
👍❤️✈️😎👏 Those Eastern L1011s look so sharp compared to a DC10. And the EA 757 with those numbers painted on the vertical stabilizer define sexy! MIA is a foamers’ dream airport for different aircraft from all over the world. Kudos, Starboard 76!
Thank you very much for checking it out!
I was thinking the same thing!!!!! Eastern's livery fit the L1011s picture perfect but the DC10s just didn't look right with Eastern 🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Oh, once again the old DC-10 haters!
Thanks for showing the videos! I liked the Eastern, Air Florida and the many schemes that were present at Miami airport.
Miami really busy then. Dominicana 727. I flew them many times. In those days Eastern was a monster. I really liked them a lot. I noticed the Viasa 747 there briefly. Another rarity would be an Eastern Airlines 747. They leased two or three of them in the seventies while waiting for the Tristar
Yep, 3 from Pan Am...and no one shot them in MIA. I'm sure some excellent footage exist on teh shelf of some Miami news station eroding by the minute.
Great video🎥
15:36 🔴 Avianca B707
My favorite Channel !!!
Thank you man and thank you for supporting my channel!
Thanks for uploading.
Imagine that was the Valujet that crashed in 1996 44:57
I miss these days. Airports were sane, people dressed well and you didn't get strip searched by the government. OK the ticket prices were high but the service made up for it.
Peace.
Absolutely!
Braniff 747s to BA, Baby!
All the Way to BA!
Classic
AIR SUNSHINE!!!!!!!
DC-10 the most beautiful of all
Yup
Eastern was the big dog
Not a fan of the DC-10 but it looked great in the National Airlines Sun king paint job. I also loved The Great Pumpkin'; the orange 747 that Braniff flew. I loved Braniff in general and their multi-colored planes, would have been a big contrast to the boring "same ness" of today's paint jobs. One of the reasons that I don't fly and will never support American, is because of the dirty tactics that their CEO engaged in, to put them out of business. 😢. Love the Air Florida 737. I miss when the 737 was the "baby" of the Boeing family .
Thanks for that review..rarely do I hear ppl speak to the dirty tricks (computer manipulation) that AA pulled to end Braniff. Yeah, that was criminal.
These old DC-10 haters!😢
