MD-80 Gee Whiz Question

[TaxiDriver]

Here is a technical and/or operational question for the MadDawg drivers out there. MGM has a corporate MD-80 based in LAS. Every time I see their 80 it is parked with the T/R buckets in the deployed position. Is there any reason for this???

I have been in and out of LAS many times, saw this yesterday and figured it would be a good question for flightinfo....

Does your wife know that you're going to LAS alot, specifically yesterday?? Shouldn't you be painting the nursery rather than surfing porn?

Just wanted to be the first to respond. Like I told you yesterday, I have no idea.

Cheap engine plugs. Point the tail into the prevailing wind and a lot less sand gets in the engine.
