	N47457 (cn 212) United Airlines Viscount 745D seen at Atlanta in this postcard shot from my collection. I loved the Visount- had the opportunity to see a lot of these at CLE as a youngster. The caption on the back of this postcard reads:rn\\\"Capital Airlines ordered 60 of the new turboprop in 1954, adding a few more later. The first was delivered on June 16, 1955. CA placed it into service on July 26, 1955 between DCA and MDW. On June 1, 1961, United took over Capital and 41 of their Viscounts, returning 15 to Vickers (they later took 6 back). The large fleet was operated until January 14, 1969 when the last was retired. N7457 was sold to TACA on Febraury 24, 1969 as YS-28C.rn

	Unknown (cn Unknown) A different postcard perspective on the CLE airport, looking east at gate 10 of the Western Concourse. International flights operated from these gates. The Viscount to the right is a Trans Canada Air Lines ship, later to be named Air Canada. They would always park on the west side of the concourse where you could never see the plane. Also in the photo is an UA B720-022 and UA DC-6. To this day, I am still not sure of the use of the building at the tip of this concourse with the white radome on top.

	Unknown (cn Unknown) A classic- Capital Airlines Vickers Viscount loading at CLE in this postcard shot. Note the observation deck concession stand (the dark blue brick building over the fuselage). Most of Capital's Viscounts would transfer over to United after those two airlines merged.
