My-Your chance of flying steam gauges?

[con-pilot]

I’m got to agree with BigSky (I think it was BigSky) the good old 72 is going to be around for a long time.

And there is not a darn thing wrong with the glass-automated cockpit. The older I gets the easier I wants it. I love auto throttles and them auto land thingies.

Good post Ak737FO. Flying steamgauges can be challenging. As for avbugs comments to your post, take it with a grain of salt.

I wanted more than anything to fly 727's, dc-8, etc. And still do, but I got to admit I'm getting used to my new glass cockpit. Who knows, the way this industry is maybe someday I will get my chance.

I still see a lot of UPS DC-8's around here. If they're getting phased out, what kind of plane would take their place?

I'm familiar with the Lone Star project. I haven't seen it; I hear it's really come along. That airplane used to be one of ours. So did the one at YIP; they got it after the wing broke.
