A cousin of mine lived for a while in Rocky Mount, NC. He always referred to Piedmont as "Air Maybe". I think he flew out of RDU.

With the exception of Covid issues, airports are a lot busier now than 1978.

I would defy anyone to find any period of the day when a section of the Atlanta airport could now be found as devoid of people and planes as this was!

A friend flew for Piedmont as a stewardess in that era. She and all the other employees hated to see Piedmont get bought. Tom Davis, the founder and CEO, seemed to know every one of the 22,000 employees. On the other hand, with US Air she got to do trans-Atlantics.

A closer view of the ships in drydock in the Brooklyn Navy Yard in 1977.

Edit reason: used the latest version of Topaz DeNoise AI which resulted in significant improvement in handling of noise.

The CMA CGM 16000 TEU Marco Polo. This is the largest Containership ever to enter Halifax Harbor.
While shooting from the opposite side of the harbor I had to create a 5 shot panoramic view at 500mm to better show the actual size of the ship against the surrounding area.
The images were taken with a K1ii and Sigma Bigma 50-500 Zoom using Aperture Priority, F-6.1 1/801 sec. Shutter Speed & ISO 200
