Just one more time please, will somebody explain to me how Boeing is getting away with producing this over stretched, under winged, under powered squat geared, cramped, 1956 designed flight deck, POS of an airplane?
Captain solo was in a 1955 B707. That trim wheel is still spinning in the NGs. Advice to new hires: airbus first and airbus as long as you can.
