Up in the air

I saw a former colleague Friday afternoon on my way home from work.

I suggested that she ask her dad, a long-retired Pan Am pilot, to watch the new show “Pan Am” and file a report on his impressions.

Obviously inspired by the success of “Mad Men,” it focuses on stewardesses in the ‘60s.

My friend said she would pass along the message. But I’m not really expecting to hear from her dad, whom I’ve met and like. Something tells me his gag reflex will force him to bail.

It’s on ABC tonight at 10.
