First TV Appearance
During the 70’s Travolta was first credited on TV in Emergency. His minor role was that of a 16 year old who fell into a canyon and seriously injured himself.
His character fractured a leg and dislocated a shoulder. Ouch! Actually, Travolta was not the only upcoming star to appear on the show, you can see Marion Ross and Nick Nolte on the show too.

Travolta Gave His Plane Away
As we mentioned, Travolta has close ties with Qantas. In fact, they gifted him with a Boeing 707 for his service as ambassador.
This plane came from their original fleet and was gifted once the company converted the commercial plane for private use back in 1964. After his daughter and son, Travolta named it, ‘Jett Clipper Ella.’ A few months back, Travolta announced his planes to send the plane to Sydney’s Historical Aircraft Restoration society after it undergoes repairs.
