The Shah of Iran, in St. Louis to discuss buying F-4 Phantom jets built by McDonnell Douglas Aircraft (1968)
He would come to St. Louis often, staying at the Chase Park Plaza.

I worked with a guy whose father was a top ranking officer in Iran’s Air Force during the Shah era. He told me the crazy story of how he basically smuggled him, his sister and his wife after the ‘79 Revolution. He flew F4s, which I thought was pretty cool since my grandfather also flew F4s in Korea with the USAF
