Re-engined 737 BTW
Damn, I was really hoping for the Honda Jet styled engines above the wing!
Of course the Fokker did it long before. Awesome baby!
I feel like I posted a picture of a naked dude. That thing is ugly.

(Sorry for the run-on) It seems that in the last couple of days, there were (for example) a trip that had one leg from BOS-JFK that was staffed from ATL. Unless something has changed, we have practically hourly service from NY to BOS, and since JFK was the goal of the coverage, skeds just bypassed common sense and went straight to panic mode and covered it our of ATL. It really kind of sucks because with a very cursory look at a few randomly chosen days through August, I found MSP trips, JFK trips and even a SEA Westpac trip that were covered by ATL. Do we have any scheduling oversight here, or is this acceptable? ALPA????
