“It was just easier for rock-stars, especially at the level of Elton John, to charter private planes to get the band from one city to the next. In the 1970s, there was one specific plane that was customized to handle musicians. The Starship, as it was called, was used not only by Elton John – but also Led Zeppelin. If planes could talk!” -Terry O’Neill
