No carry on bags on this flight. Was there even room for a baggage
hold below the passenger deck or was it all fuel?
Very little in the way of amenities on this bird. Lucky there was a toilet!
....Actually, I can see the "logic" behind the lack of carry-ons:
"Sir, you're flying a Mach-2.5 plane from DC to Chicago. You can
complete your business and get back to the office before end of
business day. You don't *need* a carry-on for overnight!"
