Default Reverse Taxi

I heard a rumour that we were originally obtaining TR's on those engines which would allow the 75/77 to taxi backwards without the use of a tug, but was later cancelled.

Some of the folks from the initial bids fought ardently against this mod and eventually won. They absolutely refused to experience any reverse movement on their airframes.

LJ,

Are you playing on your words? I've seen some of you guys taxi and you have a hard enough time going forward, never mind taxiing backwards.

Hope all's well with you and the family.

Anyone have pics of the Jumpseat area and bunks?

How many jumpseaters can it take?

Are there bunks, or just really old and used futons?

Is there a cockpit door?

Most important any ovens?

I was thinking instead of an oven a strainer for the food... Either that or a fridge for the Gerber food...

I don't plan on ever flying the darn thing... Especially when it pays like a bus. I get that pay now and better layovers.

I just want to know how many jumpseats, when fully crewed to fly half way around the world.
