Capital Airlines: Lockheed Constellation and Douglas DC-4 aircraft (1950's promo film)

This is a promotional film that was distributed by Capital Airlines (merged into United Airlines in 1961 and NOT to be confused with Capitol Airways) to illustrated how an airline operates circa 1952-53. Capital Airlines is probably best known for being the first U.S. airline to operate jet-turbine powered aircraft when it introduced the Vickers Viscount, a British built four engine turbo-prop airliner, in 1955. This film, however, predates that time by a few years and the aircraft used by Capital here are the Lockheed 049 Constellation, Douglas DC-4/C-54 and Douglas DC-3.
Capital Airlines merged with United Airlines in 1961.
