explosion of population in the first world due to 3rd world immigration

such fucking bullshit boeings fall out of the sky every fucking day but we keep that trash around

It was very expensive to fly on and had a very limited flight area.

>only feature is supersonic speed
>can only go supersonic over specific areas
>massive operating costs
>retadedly expensive ticket prices
>all to save a few hours on transatlantic flights
Wow.

This is a big part of it. Airplanes became busses.

each generation of corporate management became more ruthless and calculating, because thats what they had to be to succeed in the system made for them by the previous generation

The White race has fallen. The world has fallen.
We'll continue to slip into the abyss as technology stalls and the planet implodes.

In the 80s budget airlines started cropping up that got rid of most amenities, cut the seat space down, and offered bare bones service in comparison. These airlines made air travel more affordable for lower incomes, so they were able to not only cut costs, but also make huge profits because demand went way up. The more traditional airlines simply couldn't compete and had to adopt the cheap cut rate way of doing business in order to stay competitive. This created a feedback loop where the cheaper the flights got, the more customers wanted to fly. This encouraged even more cost cutting, etc.

International flights are basically the only place you will find classic full service airlines anymore because thats the one market where people are willing to pay a little extra for comfort.

>technology stalls
t.retard

We will never take the stars. This solar system is our cradle and our grave.

That was a mock-up aircraft cabin made in a studio for marketing. Look how wide the aisles are, even in the days of regulated aviation they weren't that big. The seat pitch and width were more generous then, though

Jewish greed.

Microprocessors stalled over a decade ago, retard. *tips fedora*

Reagan deregulated that shit

*Carter

Jews and Darkies.

Yeah, kinda. Sure we make existing stuff better and better, but nothing world changing new anymore.

NOOOO REAL PLANES ARE MORE EFFICIENT AND AFFORDABLE THAN FAKE ONES DEPICTED IN STAGED ADS AHHHH THE WHITE RACE HAS FALLEN ALL HOPE IS LOST CIVILIZATION HAS CRUMBLED IT'S ALL OVER
shut the fuck up you crybaby

Population has almost tripled since then

Assuming that pic is even real, isn't the answer just that "economy class" back then is not the "economy class" of now? They can have the same name but mean different things.

This shit would break windows on the ground just flying around. Isn't supersonic not viable mostly bedause of sonic booms over residential areas, among other things?

None of that is true

The truth is you can still get service and comfort on par with aviation's golden era by opting for business class. Everyone's blaming anyone but themselves, acting like they're not searching for the absolute rock-bottom fares when they book airline tickets.

This is a serious answer that is the true reason. Blame Truman for this. If the Americans just didn’t care about the fear of rise of communism around the world, SJWs wouldn’t exist. It’s during the cold war, when Americans went to fight an unwinnable war in Vietnam that sparked the hippie peace movement and it hasn’t stopped ever since

>The White race has fallen
notice how well dressed and professional everybody looked back then. now people dress like absolute shit

High fuel consumption and high maintenance costs, too. By the time the aircraft were certified and ready for commercial service the oil crises had hit and the airlines with orders cancelled them.

Capitalism. Anyone who answers otherwise is a fool. Capitalism was good for getting the industrial revolution started but we should have pivoted to a better more advanced system by around the 60s when things were starting to peak. But we didn't. People chose greed instead of greatness, and now they will watch the world burn from their ivory towers.

New world changing inventions don't pop up that often.

Get out commie

>a better more advanced system
like what?

Hippies brought about good music and movies so that was good. American government being obsessed about Le Reds only fuled the fire and was ultimately a waste a time and money that only got more people into communism.

Many such cases!

National Socialism

I dont want to dress like that or act like that its boring

Most people weren't flying either. Airline customers in those days were upper middle class and up. Lower class people still traveled by train or by car in those days

what anime is this?

This. Concorde flights were so a few guys could hit Paris for an afternoon then go back home

Good. You deserve it.

You deserve a free helicopter ride over the ocean

Jews did this.
