My cousin flew those. He retired from Pan Am at seniority number 1 off the 747. He's 95 and still driving, although he stopped flying and sold his humble Cessna 150 a few years ago. He's quite the character and has more than few interesting stories.

PS: I passed my check ride.

I doubt they did. The R-1830 engines weren't top secret, either.
