[CopilotDoug]

Yeah, but he's not a bad guy...being a little tetched is a prerequsite to passing the Region's interview!

Yeah, anybody who brings a box of pineapples to a party is A-OK by me

 

[Way2Broke]

Yup.. is he still there? Darn good pilot too. Hope no one read that the wrong way.

Hey Belch,

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I saw that you guys have an old United bird, S/N54 ?!? That thing must be pretty old! Do you guys run those with the older JT9s? Are they all that fuel efficicient when compared to the newer turbofans?

Aside from that, what's the "bump" behind the upper deck for?

Er, we have some oldies, yeah. Not sure on the s/n, but you won't see any A-380's in 30 years! -7A and J aren't so good on the fuel, the Q's are pretty good. None are as good on fuel as the new RR and GD engines, nor are they as finiky...they are Pratt's by God! And they don't fracking leak oil, they mark their spot!

The hump is to make room for the Captain's cash-fat wallet!

hehehe

I worked with a former NWA MX OP Director and he had alot of time working on the JT9s. The stories the man had about the durability of those engines...needless to say, you won't find today's engines operating as far out of the envelope (if at all!) that the pratt's could do on a routine basis. Built like a brick $hit house, they were!

Awww...come on folks, we gotta keep the thread going!
