You're going to like the 737-700s.
They are little Ferraris compared to the 800s.
Lots of power and they stop on a dime.
Took one into Key West the other day for the first time.
4800' of runway is twice as much as you really need.
Now if they could just do something about the recirc fan that sounds like a hurricane.

Did you go out full?

Any DAL-N guys know if we are getting paid tonight? I would assume this is our last NWA paycheck, as it would include overs and per-diem from December. I would think our first check on the DAL system would be the first advance check for Feb. Anyone.......anyone........anyone????
I think you will get paid on the 15th, just like any delta guy....

Yes. Completely full. No problem at all.
No headwind and it was still a reduced thrust T/O.
Hartsfield was VFR though. Things might be different if you needed to carry alternate gas.
Despite the agility and excellent performance of the 700, I certainly wouldn't want to abort just prior to V1 at that airport. I don't care what the ODM says, to the naked eye its one of those that looks like there's no way you could stop.

Sounds like one of those airports where the performance says you can stop but if you actually were to see the calculations, you would notice that you can do it, but you only would have .25 inches of pavement left....

Yes, it was always fun to see the reaction of jumpseaters, especially on a hot summer day.
