I count myself as being fortunate to have flown on Continental and TWA in 1966 and 1969, respectively. Yeah, even coach was luxury back then compared to what it is now.

727 in the background, and then a DC-6? in the bottom pic? Great pics!

---

Not sure but what it was a DC-6 or a Vickers Viscount.

Vickers Viscount 800, Wiki says they were retired in 1967

I'm petty sure the background of the top picture is a 707 variant from the wing and visible pylon, and the HF antenna is just lost in the background.
edit: or it was one of the weird types that never had one

With the tail assembly and shorter length, I was leaning towards DC-8 instead of 707. Didn't realize they had variants of the 707 without the antenna, though.
