Jeeeeesus, who cares? How's the pay and QOL?

 

Oh really, I said that? Please show me exactly where I said that.

 

you are right that was David Puddy that said that. My apologies...But, then you did call the other plane a POS.

 

I do in fact think the 737 is a POS, for myriad reasons, and hope to never fly it!

It is beyond pathetic and pitiful this BS is now carrying more/same amount of pax as the 757 with 1000000% less performance. Fml.

I was in a UA jumpseat on a fully loaded -800
maybe -900 DEN-LAX a 3-4 years ago. Early October day mid 70s no wind. 100% full as I was in the JS. Calm winds. This F’n thing used at least 10k of runway to get airborne. FO even looked a bit concerned. He and the CA talked about it a bit at cruise. FO (his leg) thinks it may have switched to a few kt tailwind during TO hence the even $hittier perf than he’s used to (assuming).

I could absolutely care less whatever Aerodata or Boeing says. I witnessed how atrocious climb perf was that day with 2 engines. Without any doubt we would
have been a smoking hole in the ground had we blown one at V1.

If Boeing had re-engined (NEO) and update glass/avionics of the 75, they would have killed it. As god awful as Boeing is with the 73, they have, in fact made some of the most badass high performing airplanes in history. Just embarrassing and pathetic they sucked so much WN and legacy delta icks instead of manning up for a clean sheet design/replacement.

 

What is United and Southwest Airlines thinking! I can’t believe they fly all the 737 variants out of DEN 365 days/year. The humanity!

 

exactly! so many aerospace engineers and test pilots on APC.

 

Don't forget part-time economists and airline execs. If the 757 was so great, it would have sold better, and would still be in production.

 

There’s a little thing called reduced thrust takeoffs. Ever heard of them?
