1162 00:50:15,240 --> 00:50:18,640 And, um, he said, "Oh, you know, tell the boys 1163 00:50:18,880 --> 00:50:20,720 there's a big crowd waiting for 'em there." 1164 00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:22,920

be altered 1167 00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:29,720 and it was the day their Pan Am jet touched down 1168 00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:31,800 at Kennedy International in New York 1169 00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:33,520 to a welcome which has seldom been equaled 1170 00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:34,720 anywhere in history. 1171 00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:38,800 ♪ ...your hand ♪ 1172 00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:43,040
