Deliveries began in 1965 , the Boeing 727 entered service in 1964 and the Tupolev TU-124 entered service between Moscow and Ulyanovsk in December 1962 And - though for various reasons it didn't enter service - the Avro Canada C-102 was flying at the end of the 1940s. That probably as the best claim to being the first regional-distance jet. Next one - the Tu-104, maybe? -- Andy Breen ~ Interplanetary Scintillation Research Group http://users.aber.ac.uk/azb/ "Time has stopped, says the Black Lion clock and eternity has begun" (Dylan Thomas)
