Описание к видео 1950's, Capital Airlines, promo film, Lockheed Constellation and Douglas DC-4 aircraft

This is a promotional film that was distributed by Capital Airlines (merged into United Airlines in 1961 and NOT to be confused with Capitol Airways) to illustrate how an airline operates circa 1952-53. Capital Airlines is probably best known for being the first U.S. airline to operate jet-turbine powered aircraft when it introduced in March 1955 the Vickers Viscount, a British built four engine turbo-prop airliner. This film, however, predates that time by a few years and the aircraft used by Capital here are the Lockheed 049 Constellation, Douglas DC-4/C-54 and Douglas DC-3.
Capital Airlines merged with United Airlines in July 1961.
