    Photographer: Geoff Goodall
    Notes: I took a passenger flight on this Air California L.188 Electra N124C in September 1977. In those pre-computer days, when planning the trip, my travel agents OAG and ABC airline schedule publications showed that some Air California departures from San Francisco began with a short hop across the bay to Oakland. So for $17, I booked SFO-OAK only, which was scheduled at 5 minutes
