my father once flew home in a plane’s cargo compartment after bribing pilots. This was in USSR in the end of 70ies

Grandfather once talked a commercial pilot into giving him a hike while traveling the USSR. Just walked on the airport field and asked while everyone else was boarding, no bribe needed lol. Got to sit in an extra crew seat. Was also around the 70ies I believe.

It’s wild how different the flights are even from my early flights (pre 2001).
