Breck, click everything off and the Bus "flys", sort of.
It is unbelieveable how many pilots (because of the thinking ingrained here) "fly" the bus. Mostly everything is "selected" They don't trust it to manage. Could have something to do with the old "box" compared to the "newer" box.
Never flew the 737. But, I too have sat in the front on it, and I can tell you, I would prefer the Bus on the East to West coast flights.
P.S. I've been getting the emails from the prior regime at Sprint. Ahhhhh, things just never change.
