Bruce, FC on the 707 and later the 747 was a wonderful experience. Each passenger had a welcome card at their seat with a flower. You were given a drink of your choice, usually champagne. After takeoff, the F/A's would come around with a cart with smoked salmon, finely chopped onions, capers, egg yoke, caviar, little toasts and vodka very cold in a block of ice. Latter, for dinner, the F/A's would cook the food to order. A cart with a Chateau of filet minion, small crisp potatoes and an assortment of veggies along with a selection of fine wine and followed with some wonderful deserts. Then, after dinner liquors.  Ahhhhh, those were the day my friend......
