re: #129 Shiplord Kirel

My very first job, in 1966, involved sweeping up metal shavings in the machine shop of the Douglas Aircraft plant in El Segundo. It paid $2.85/hour, which was a fortune for a 16 year old at the time (minimum wage was $1.05/hr iirc).

What were they building then? DC-8s and DC-9s?
