GUM-HNL mx ferry. Landed an empty plane with 18k landing fuel. 324 was the landing weight. 8L HNL to hold short 4L, requires 30 flaps per SOP. Could have turned off at the AF ramp.

Love reading the small D&$k big airplane guys bag the 737. Sorry, it makes more money then the 757, flies better places then the Airbus, gets you more seniority quicker in every base, and you won't look like the Crypt Keeper after a few years like the 777 guys. There's lots of open time and Sr manning, you can make some serious 🤑🤑. We had a new airbus guy jumpseat on a 900 a few weeks ago and he was surprised how easily we landed on 9R in ORD, and by the fact that we don't actually stall at FL320 and run out of gas on a transcon. No airplane is perfect, the 777 was the easiest I've flown, but I've never felt sh$ttier, the dc9 was the most fun, and the oldest POS..... But if your senior to me, keep thinking the 737 is horrible 😉

... they don't call it WB flying for nothing. Seriously though... there is only a small tray above the pubs bag... pretty worthless.
