- WalterBright 5y agoI sometimes wonder what my great-aunt was thinking when she flew across the Atlantic in a jetliner. She remembered when the first automobile came to her village. I first flew across the Atlantic as a baby in a propeller airplane. The last time I crossed, it was in a 757, the airplane I worked on 40 years previously. The big advances in my lifetime were pretty much all in computers. Ironically, that was the one thing not predicted by any of the endless scifi books I read.
