While companies may not love everything about the 737, they realize they are buying a well-made, proven, and dependable airplane. The same can't be said about Fifi.
Hmmm? how much time do you have in fifi?.....i have flown both and like them both. They are different aircraft for different times. Doesnt matter how long they can last. Do you see any airlines flying 707's around? (exept for travolta)
