BOEING 727-200 (N523PE) - KSJC - the simplicity of San Jose Airport from the mid 1960s till the early 1990s when Terminal C was open shows here - from the Observation deck I could go to daily - to where one used to be able to park across the street from the ticket counters and walk inside within 200ft...closer if one got a front parking space...and have a real nice day walking around the airport - to a ramper standing on the luggage cart with his fingers in his ears.........

Thanks Dave and CW Reed - I also filmed quite a bit of VHS tapes here, 90% Air Cal some CO DC-9s and 727s here and a few old paint Alaska Airlines - the view was limited but better than nothing. When terminal A was finished 1991-ish, they built a 5 story parking structure so i used that exclusively as it was open air on the top floor and great for filming, I switched to Hi-8mm Sony camcorder from the top floor I could see all.
