I've traversed this wondrous world Captured through the windows of bird's eyes, Enclosed within a body with silver wings, So blessed I've been to fly the friendly skies. 11-14-17 PIC MOTIFS: VISUAL Contest Sponsor Nette Onclaud Word count 28 Farewell to United's 747 Jumbo Jet https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=Zm62JOOmc6k

My first ride was when I was 3 and half years old. I decided at that time I would have a career as a stewardess one day. Thank you Jo. xxoo

Thank you Silent. I was brought to tears saying goodbye to the 747 Jumbo Jet as we fondly called it. I met my husband on that airplane in January 1980. And I took the inaugural flight out of Seattle to Chicago on that big bird. We are all sad to see it retired. : )

It was wonderful to have had a flying career for 34 years Arthur, but it was very hard work at times. I met my husband on that 747 Aircraft in January of 1980! My best flight ever! Thank you so much. Connie ;)
