If you were in an Airbus you could have taken it right up to the jetway. :)

Yea, but you would have to be in an Airbus :mad::mad:

The most comfortable, ergonomically friendly jets designed. :)
That being said, I'm quite fond of the 757/767.

Me 2, many times. With the NWS off the dash is simple to taxi from the right.

Haven't flown it. But now I know it can be done. :D

I hope this was due to being sick or food positioning for the CA's sake!

For all of you reading, I had a coworker take a bunch of vitamins 1/2 way through the flight on an empty stomach. On approach he was preparing to puke and afterwards he said he nearly passed out. I tell everyone I fly with about this....don't be that guy!

Just my .02

People are stupid when it comes to this industry.

And THATS why he's a van driver.

Turns out both of the recent incidents at Alaska are being blamed on the flu.

So true! Some newspaper is gonna ask him "we're you scared flying the plane for the first time?"
