If they mange to hook up ground power to the L-10, what would the odds be of being able to power on the airplane? Looked it up on Planespotters. It is a DC-8-63CF Msn.460...

Believe it was 762
Yes that was it!
Anyone know of why N217HA has been sitting in Angeles City, Philippines since late March? Are there any pictures of it there or in Guam? This was one was the first A321neo I ever stepped foot on a few years ago.

Jump to postWith 737MAX delivery delays, Allegiant will hold on to some A320s for the summer that were scheduled for retirement. Allegiant estimates it will only receive 12 of the originally planned 24 MAX's for 2024. https://www.reuters.com/business/aerospace-defense/allegiant-expects-fewer-aircraft-boeing-us...
Jump to postDoes F9 repaint any of its aircraft? Some of the A320, and A320neos are starting to look a bit rough. Some of the older aircraft leases were recently extended to cover delays in the current Airbus production/engine issues.

Jump to postSomeone mentioned this on the fleet thread, so apologies if it doesn’t belong here.. Also pardon my ignorance with the question.. It was mentioned that B6 ditch the A220s, pick up A319s, and have B6 become a one fleet airline. With B6 doing its cost cutting, would that be a good idea? (with or witho...
Jump to postIMHO I don’t think WN is looking to merge or acquire anyone just yet.. However I believe the writing is certainly on the wall, especially if the MAX7 delays go on any further. IMHO the next merger or acquisition will be a Breeze.. I also believe the interiors will go along the lines of this. 737-700...
Jump to postI second the question in the above post. When will Croatia Airlines get their first A220, and what will the registration be?
Jump to postIn the 737MAX production thread there’s a picture of winglets that very much match the “Honor Those Who Serve” planes. Which MAX (8,9, or both?) will be painted into this livery? Will it replace the aircraft currently wearing that livery?
Jump to postI know this one is to become an E-7, however from the looks of it here, before its mods, it looks like any other 737-700.

With all the continued issues with the MAX, especially with the MAX7, IF WN wanted factory fresh 737-700s, would Boeing be able to make them?
Jump to postThey’re the B/E Meridians. The same seat WN launched in 2016. Also the same seats that is currently one the newer -800s and MAX8. It’s also the same seat model that’s on AAs “Oasis” aircraft.
Jump to postPerhaps this is very much “wishful thinking” as I don’t care for the interior DL has on its A319/A320 fleet. However would it be possible for DL to install the “Airspace” overhead bins on its A319/320/321ceo fleet to make the Airbus product consistent throughout the whole fleet?
Jump to postIt takes a while for the factory paint lines to catch up to new branding. This isn't unusual. I suspect we will see it on a 220 before the end of the year, but I have no inside information. This seems to be a uniquely Airbus problem... Airbus seems to lock in paint schemes very early and have zero ...
Jump to postOnce the NEXT retrofits are done, you shouldn’t be able to tell the difference between a Max 8/9 or a 737-800/900. So does this mean that the NEXT retrofits will also include new BSI sidewalls as well? It will still have the classic sidewalls, but it will look closer to the MAXes than it would to t...
Jump to postHow do people generally feel about special liveries being on the 737-800s as opposed to the -700s? I believe some of the specialty liveries such as California One and Nevada One looked better on the shorter aircraft, or could have been redrawn to better fit a longer aircraft. However some other spe...
Jump to postNow that UA doesn't have any 738's with mid cabin lavs, why do they have so many versions of 738/max8 arrangements, and so many versions of 739/max9? Do they have different size lavs in the rear? Or do the different F seats take up a different amount of space? Surely, it wouldn't be that hard to ha...

Jump to postHere’s N8660A in the Lone Star One livery
https://www.reddit.com/r/SouthwestAirli ... by_737800/
N8681M (Future Triple Crown) shouldn’t be too far behind it.
Will these 737-8MAXs replace the -800s, Ejets, or be used for growth? With an airline the size of LO, wouldn’t it be easier for them to operate a fleet of just 737Maxes and 787s?
Jump to postMods please delete if this is considered “off topic.” With the many approvals this merger is getting, when will Korean launch its rebrand? Looking at many of their planes (at least the 773ERs that I often see) many look like they’re ready for a repaint.
Jump to postMight be a bit of a random question. Does Lynx have a standard passenger cabin design, or does it use the seats that came with the NTU MAXes it acquired?
Jump to postWhen did DL fly a 757 to DKR? Which tail number was it? (I’d imagine an ETOPS 757)
Jump to postI too, am curious of the fate of N704AL. There’s an awful lot of memes, and pictures showing that registration with the missing door. Perhaps they might re-register it?

Jump to postI heard WN will retrofit 737-800s with USB ports. When it comes to those with Evolve interior, will they install those ports on Evolve seats or will they replace those seats? I don’t believe the -800s will be getting the power ports, however I could be wrong. If they are it will likely be the merid...
Jump to postI’d imagine the existing MAX, including the ETOPS MAX8s will be retrofitted. In the end will look something like this. 737-700- Evolve Blue 737-800- “Heart” Meridian Seats 737-7/8MAX- “Recaro” Blue seats I doubt there will be any refresh to the -700 fleet. I often wonder if the MAX7 falls through, i...

Jump to postSince NK, F9, and indigo operate A320neos, can UA opt for those too? Before everyone jumps on the “UA has the MAX8 already,” wouldn’t the A320neo/321neo mix also help even out the narrowbody dynamics?
