Ameristar 737

Is Ameristar still flying?

Does anyone know anything about the fa20 they totaled in JHW?

from what I understand it was an over run due to a contaminated runway that resulted in damage to the nose gear that is too costly to repair due to the lack of availability of spares. ten years ago probably no big deal.

quit trying to be so dramatic there was no bent metal

and yes they are still flying as far as I know

Not being dramatic. It was totaled. How is that dramatic? A little dent goes a long way, and it had a few "little dents", ripples, yada yada.
At any rate, an old war horse, with a history.

From what I understand it's rough times just like everyone else. Good luck to all my buds over there.

Then why did you make the original post if you already know everything?

No, I have not flown 165TW in like 7 years and my Ameristar career is behind me. What I heard from someone that was there and there does not seem to be an incident on file, it appeared to me you were trying to stir the pot so to speak. There are a lot of people that have it in for AJI and most of them never worked there.

I digress....
