Supah my friend, It was the golden age not because of what you said above, (Most of which is true if not all) but because this was the time that aviation was truly born. The quest for more speed and flying over longer distances, I think that the design of some of these aircraft just 25 to 30 years after man's first flight at Kittyhawk, are works of art. this was the moment that modern aviation was born.
but I'd still fly on holiday in a 737 any day
