I've seen pictures when I was the age of the boy on the car hood with shoes like that!

The top pic shows a Douglas C-124c Globemaster II with its clam shell doors open forward. I flew via "Old Shaky" airways a couple of time. I loved the plane. For troop carrying it offered two decks and a really fast coffee service system in the galley at the tail. Didn't care much for the web seats. The bar cut you across the butt perfectly and painfully. On my last trip I'd just done an overnight guard detail so the bar didn't get in the way of my sleeping most of the way. The Pratt & Whitney R-4360 Wasp Major engines played their part in that as well. There was a retractable stairway up to the cockpit.
