I thought if this is what a 20 year old plane can do, what's coming next? When Boeing announced the Sonic Cruiser, I thought it was a natural evolution of human flight, of course this would be next. Instead, the project and indeed the whole future of aviation was hijacked by accountants. The 737NG is a joke. A JOKE. The 900ER is just about the most ridiculous thing I've seen in aviation. It's very existence is anathema to what flying should be all about. This still being the greatest nation on earth, we should all be flying around on widebody airplanes with plenty of lavs, a lounge, and comfortable seats. No PA's informing you that if you don't pee in the next 10 seconds, you will be blocked by carts for the next 2 hours. You don't see the Japanese or the Europeans cramming onto RJ's for 3 hours, standing in the rain waiting for baggage. It's just unbelievable to me that it's come to this. It has to be a low point. Hopefully as the industry continues to recover, and hopefully we can stop our own government from selling us out, then the time will come where airlines will differentiate on aircraft (despite what RA says- that aircraft type are irrelevant-I disagree)
