DAL 757 with no Wemacs??

Netjets dude
Be careful!!! Customers that refer to their pilot as B.I.T.C.H., don't usually stay customers for long.

Going back to the original subject, Continental Airlines doesn't have eyeball vents in any of their 767s or 777s. Never really understood why but it probably does save weight. It's very frustrating not being able to control your own ventilation on a 10 hour flight.

Man, that is one old 757. SIN got rid of the 757's before they got A310's.

Anyone remember the last time they saw a SIN A310?

Those airplanes have to keep the mx guys happy!

BTW, revenue pax (whoever pays for their ticket) are allowed to criticize the service offered. They are not always given a choice of who to fly.

NJA does spend a lot on airline tickets every year and someone who is 'double-rare-metal-member' should be taken seriously. BEEOTCH! TC

P.S.--Too bad GL isn't at AA. With the new gogo internet, he could really jack his post count!

You guys are all wrong. A wemac is what the want-to-be engineers at Cessna call a punka-louvre. Yes that's right not a wemac or eyball vent but a punka-louvre.

Cessna Sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just incase you didn't know that. The 560XL is the crappiest plane I have flown besides the new 172s.

You better learn who's a$$ needs to be kissed!

The customer is always RIGHT, B.I.T.C.H.!!!

Mohammed Atta was a full-fare customer.

So was the shoe bomber.

We should do our best to make the cabin comfortable. The question about "wemacs" is legitimate. Your naive assertion is not.

I think everybody should know by now CA1900 doesn't post flamebait here...

Someone who used to fly a BE1900 is complaining about a lack of air or being uncomfortable. I bet he never heard that while flying the BE1900........He forgets sooooo soon.

....but he's still your customer, "numbnuts".

nice attitude.

Unless you couldn't tell, its called "sarcasm," numbnuts!

4 PW powered early 90's models. 2 are now ETOPS. No vents sucks but run the cabin a little cooler and people are happy.

The 17 ex TWA/AA 757s are very sweet with new interiors, GPS, winglets, etc.

Don't speak to soon. First DL MD-88 had wifi installed a couple days ago, installation is quick, and the entire fleet should have it by next summer.

Hey now, with the blowers on HI, the air coming out of those vents of a 1900 will rip your toupe off! Now whether the air is COLD, that's a different story. Especially if you had the old P.O.S Director of MX that Commutair had in the late 90's. He regarded the VCM as a "passenger convenience item" and not worthy of his attention. Would have loved to have strapped him in for a July hour-taxi in IAD to see if he would change his mind!

Big difference between flying a 1900 and riding on a full Y fare on a 757, GL...but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that you know that.

I'm 100% confident CA1900 understands the cabin temp problems caused by an inop APU, but I'd also be baffled by not having any wemacs/gaspers/eyeball vents/etc in the cabin of an airliner.

 

[IDEtoNJA]

Uhhh.... no. I rode on it. I'd have taken a picture of the overhead console if I had thought of it.

Delta 692, MCO-ATL, this morning. It left 36 minutes late, meaning I missed my connection to Wilmington. It left 5 minutes after we blocked in (pushed 5 early), and we got to enjoy 3 extra hours in ATL waiting for the next one.


The only other oddity was that the Smoking and FSB signs had Korean text over the English. Second-hand airplane, maybe?

CA1900,

You are not airlining quite enough! Only 38K miles?!

My point being that not all planes (including those particular 757s or BE1900s for that matter) are easy to cool, and yes, a broken APU makes it worse. He should have known that, and he should have remembered back to the days when his B1900 was sitting in line at a hot IAD afternoon and he was helpless. I could expect that from an AirForce pilot who never had to deal with it, but not a Commuter guy. I flew E120s out of MDW way back when, and we had hot Summers too.

Gotcha. I just thought the layout was weird enough that I had to share it with my Flightinfo family. :laugh:

On a positive note, we were too late to do the trip, so we ended up just staying in Wilmington. Paddy's Hollow Pub is delicious, by the way. :beer:

Good beer yes but I prefer "The Copper Penny" great food, beer, and alwyas have some sort of special on both. It's on Chesnut street I think.
