It has a slight upward trend, but it won't take off!; February 19, 1971

Identifier: mus_aaec0437

Description: From the AAEC Editorial Cartoon Collection. Cartoon by Ed Valtman. Richard Nixon and two men are in the control tower of an airport. They wear white lab coats and appear to be engineers or aircraft designers. Before them on the table are engineering blueprints, one of which is unrolled and labeled "1971 model." The two engineers are looking at the blueprints. Nixon is looking out the tower window at a large aircraft labeled "Economy" rolling past. The aircraft has no wings, and the pilot is hanging out the cockpit window waving at the tower. One of the engineers says to Nixon, "It has a slight upward trend, but it won't take off."
