Remark Photographer
N47**U Another angle on United's forward coach lounge, looking starboard. First cabin is just forward of the bulkhead on the left.I don't know how the businessmen felt about the kids running around. That tube hanging over the back of the older gentleman’s seat? A pneumatic (tube type) headset.

Ah... I can almost smell the cigarette smoke. Reminds me of the "Stevens" 747 from Airport '77.

It's just amazing how this photo is 40 years old but everything in it (the fixtures and fittings) is absolutely familiar - in fact any time traveller from 2011 stepping into that 1972 plane would instantly feel at home, plus amazed/delighted at *All* *That* *Space*. But think anybody in 1972 going back 40 years...to 1932...what a difference! So is progress speeding up, or slowing down do you think?!

I think united's buisness class idea was from here lol

A visitor from Jordan posted Mon June 21, 2010:
Really great, thank you.

For our Swiss colleague, this is coach even, imagine First being more dressed up :).

A visitor from Switzerland posted Thu September 25, 2008:
Congrats for this unique and authentic iconographic document of a time when First Class was really for the upper crust. People used to dress up and not dress down while flying as it is the case in both Emirates and SIA forward A380 cabins!

A visitor from South Africa posted Sat August 2, 2008:
Shows you that if thats what it used to be like on the seven four, then it's only so long until Emirates and Singapore Airlines start cramming seats into their 380's.

A visitor from United States posted Fri August 1, 2008:
Excellent example of changed times

A visitor from Netherlands posted Fri August 1, 2008:
I would love to fly this way! Now every plane is full of boring rows!

A visitor from United States posted Fri August 1, 2008:
As far as revenue seating, this forward lounge actually had 18 (forward- and rearward-facing)salable seats, including the swivels. Filling them was another issue as this shot is six years prior to U.S. deregulation. No airline wanted to be left behind by NOT ordering widebodies.

A visitor from United States posted Fri August 1, 2008:
Wow, that is such a blast from the past! Excellent piece of history :)

A visitor from United States posted Fri August 1, 2008:
Great photo, this would look great as a poster on the wall in my office five stars *****

A visitor from - posted Fri August 1, 2008:
I've never seen a photo that makes the 747 so spacious!

A visitor from Brazil posted Fri August 1, 2008:
Good old times !

A visitor from Netherlands posted Fri August 1, 2008:
Great stuff Dave, thnx. Never seen this before. In this area they would sell 80-90 seats shortly after ;)
