Here's the thing to remember about evaluating the 320. Evidently, they're worth more in parts then as a whole.

This bird was only 6 years old.

318s are a different deal. Too short to use jetways without mods and very heavy for their pax capacity.

Proof you can shrink an airframe too much. No wonder it got parted out.

But its not my fault if they die from rolling around on the floor laughing.

Tsquare and 80 are officially in the danger zone.

My calculation for finally making it back to the channel was spot on. Found ESPN right when kickoff happened.

Love seeing the Gators lose! :)

On the other hand, we're allowed to be scheduled to 13:00 duty. My rotation is planned at 12:59 tomorrow. I wonder why this trip went to a reserve. :eek:

Because reserve pilots are suckers for anything scheduling throws at them.


Well.... may not be exactly how that happens.



SEC isn't looking so good this bowl season.

It's a hell of a tool belt to replace a light bulb and electrical outlet plates, but hey.

I wonder if the A318 pilots feel compelled to get supersized F350's and the like? :)

What airline pilot, outside of SWA, can afford an F-350?
