An interesting look back: it's a copy of a Tracor ad showing someone carrying a portable Rb clock down the stairs of a PSA plane. Lots of history in that photo: no jetway, PSA, people wearing coat and tie on an airplane. Even the street name for GTC, on Bellanca Av, redolent of long-gone airplane mfrs.. BTW, google street view shows a building that is probably where Tracor was. (in among a bunch of giant parking structures, of course)

At the address is now Secom International - a leader in parking solutions.
