Somewhere in Time, Unlimited Elegant
Air Travel |
|
This Spring, SITU takes flight by reminiscing about the elegant air travel of a by-gone era, when stewardesses were chosen for their height and visual appeal, as well as being a Registered Nurse. Air travel for passengers was a new industry with lots of blue sky ahead!
doors, while we anticipate a guided tour through his collection of planes. I hear there are even some which are cleverly suspended mid-air!

| All The Details - |
|
| What to wear? |
Your finest 1930’s/40’s traveling attire,
of course! If you are a more mature person and still have
fashions from the 1920’s, I’m sure Mr. Boeing won’t mind - Women are welcome to include pert hats, suits, even a fur fling. Full fur coat is not needed as we will be indoors and the hangar is well heated. -
Gentlemen have it
easy - daytime suit, hat, and cane in the event you require it
to climb stairs to a plane. |
| What will happen? | As SITU, we have arranged to have a docent from
a Mr. Boeing's hangar give us a guided tour of some of the
collection. We might even get a glimpse "into the future"
of 20-40 years and see what passenger travell might look like
down the road. |
| What will happens after the tour? |
After the tour of Mr. Boeing’s hangar and
collection (about an hour to hour and a half) we will be able to
pop over to the cafeteria (Wings Cafe) for a late lunch or
snack. The cafeteria is located conveniently so we can view the
nearby runway to watch other planes landing or taking off.
The
offerings in the cafeteria are wide ranging. One can enjoy a
salad, sandwich, hamburger, desserts, soda pop, and of course,
adult beverages! If you would like to see what you could
purchase, here is the menu page:
We hear that some smart young boys from the Schwartz family are
gaining quite the notoriety with catering. Rumour is that
they are calling themselves "Schwartz Brothers".... |
