I will fly the "Guppy" for what my SWA neighbor makes. Makes more then our 777 guys and has just about as much time off.

I love the guppy. Its like my first girlfriend. I have a soft spot in my heart for her but now that she is bigger I wouldn't want to spend the rest of my life on her.

Actually I would consider flying it if the QOL was better on it than the A320. The bus is much more comfortable to be trapped in on a 3hr+ flight.

And why do you keep finding those size 14 tennis shoes under the bed :). Just a little levity amidst the drama.

Yep I'm 6'4" and 250 lbs. I had a torrid love affair with the the queen "B"-737 I flew it at America West and for three years at UAL. But After moving on I've never looked back. Tell you what though, show me the money and I'll gladly shoe horn myself into the pointy end of a Super Guppy.


BTW just so you guys know.

I have a HUGE watch. ;)

Dat's da bomb!! I wonder if they make a wrist band for that sucker?

They make cockpits bigger than the 73?

After purgatory in the ole 3 holer, the NG looks positively futuristic.

Gimme a Boeing. Busses are the Kia of jets. Cheap, flimsy and disposable.

There's no way I'd take a Bus some of the places we've gone in with the 727 and the folks at Everett passed as much along to the 73 as they could. Best damn planes ever built.

We weren't even talking about the DC-8..;)
