Caption | The Convair CV-440 Metropolitan HB-IMB joined the Swissair fleet in 1956. The "Metrop" was the first Swissair aircraft with weather radar and - what we on the ground [i. e. Swissair personnel] particularly liked - it had its own built-in passenger stairs at the front, which made it very "fast" on the ground and allowed short ground times |
