In fact I’m banking on it.” “Well, we meant more what kind of planes are on the hori zon, like the Jumbo jets and the SST’s. And what they will mean to the traveling public.” “I just hope that I’m not on a Jumbo 747 when there are a lot of infants. Imagine warm ing 113 baby bottles at one time. They tell us these big jets will hold 450 passengers or so.” “That will cause problems?” “Nothing we can’t lick. They had the same problems going from any smaller plane to a bigger one, like the DC-3 to the DC-4 way back in the olden days.” “Olden days? Why that was only . . . but never mind.” “Yes,” said Carol. “When the first jets were coming in, back when I was a little girl, I re member a lot of people thought there would be too many prob lems, landing strips not long enough or thick enough, air port terminals not big enough for the new mobs of passen gers, too much noise . . . all that stuff. ters bigger and invent new ways of putting the baggage on and off. The food will get better as it always has. And the tickets will begin to cost less, and more and more peo ple will fly.” “But the SST?” “Well, that’s next. The Jum bo will fly farther and faster, more than 600 miles an hour. But the SST will go three times that fast. Of course there’s one little problem.” “And that is . . .?” “It’s this international date line.” “What will that do?” “Let’s see if I can explain it right. At present, with ordi nary old-fashioned jets, you can leave Tokyo on a Pan Am flight for San Francisco and arrive in California before you left Japan. “You jump 24 hours, that is the time jumps, when you cross the date line in that direction, flying eastward that is, so when you get to where you are going, the time is earlier than when you started.” “I don’t quite follow. . . .” “It’s pretty simple. When you are going the other way, from Los Angeles, say, to Hong Kong, you lose a day when you cross the date line because the time jumps forward 24 hours. Or maybe you gain a day. “Anyway, if you were flying at Christmas time you might miss Christmas . . . or have two of them if you were going in the opposite direction. “Now with the SST’s going so fast, if you travel very much you are liable to get way ahead of yourself, or way behind.” “We’re a little behind you right now, Miss Harrison.” “Well, if I get stuck explain ing it I can always get the navigator. But there is one thing that has always puzzled me a little.” “And that is?” “It’s how come when you fly from California you get to the Far East?” “Thank you, Miss Harrison, it has been most edifying.”
