Re: The Freudian slip of the century

Re: DL to start paying F/As during boarding

Nope. Unfortunately. I used to be one of those who thought being a flight attendant was easy, and I would frown when they wanted pay raises. Legit questions: from what position were you frowning?

Re: What airliner do you wish you could have flown on but never got the chance?

Boeing 720. As a budding teenaged avgeek in the late 70s I missed out on Western Airlines. I did have a three-segment ticket on WA along the US West Coast in December 1978 that involved a 720 segment but had to cancel. Once stationed in England from 1985 I could've tried to sort our a Conair flight ...

Yep...a shame indeed.

Airport(s) where the number of your departures matches the number of destinations.

As the title states. The airport with the highest number of destinations you've flown to only one time....and no other flights from that airport. For example I've departed Singapore six times, to six different cities. Those are the only flights/destinations I have from Singapore: Bangkok, Newark, Ho...

Re: Same airport...same airline over and over again

Not that I've been there "over and over again" as the thread title might imply but Singapore only with SQ over four trips. I've never walked out of the airport...sad as that may seem to some people. Not that it really matters but the date is departure date. There are airports with smaller ...

Re: Which route have you flown on the most diverse number of aircraft?

Fun to research. Since 1983, the Denver-Phoenix city pair (both directions) I have 14 different combinations of airline/types. American: A320, A321 Continental: 727-200, DC-9-82 Frontier: A319, A320, A321 Southwest: 737-200 (via ABQ), 737-300, 737-700, 737-800 Spirit: A320 United: 737-800, 737-900 B...

Air Nikon (Mickey Bednar) Gone for 15 years now :-(

All - Air Nikon was laid to rest 15 years ago on 29 January 2007. Many on a.net will remember Air Nikon (Mickey Bednar) as a photo screener and the first photographer on a.net with 9,999 photos in the database. Posthumously, A.net administrators located one additional photo they added to give Mickey...

Re: Least known airlines you've flown on

Also flew aboard an Arctic Circle Air Cessna 207 Dillingham-Togiak-Dillingham (Alaska) in May 1999 while Air Nikon and I were in between Reeve L-188 flights at Dillingham.

In addition to my landing only at EMA I mentioned before, I've arrived KOA (Kona), driven across the island and departed from ITO (Hilo).

Re: Who Here Has Flown on Both the 753 and 764?

Delta 764 JFK-HNL (specific trip for the type); UA 753 DEN-SFO (specific trip for the type); NW 753 MSP-PHX (specific trip for the type). Enjoyed them all.

Re: One a time landed or Took off airport you've flown to

My return to London LGW from ATH in October 1986 on a Britannia 737 was diverted to East Midlands (EMA) due to fog at LGW. We were on final in the soup when suddenly power was applied and we climbed. Thankfully we were stationed at RAF Alconbury at the time so it was a pretty straightforward train t...

Re: Airliner Photo Angles and Liveries

The square footage of the 707 Intercontinental wing is larger than the DC-10 and L-1011 (or so I have read). Fact-checking this statement is easy. Per Wikipedia, the wing area of DC-10 is 3550 sq ft, vs. 3050 sq ft. of the 707-300 series. So no, the square footage is not larger than the DC-10. 3456...

Re: 737 max safety card question

As long as exit/emergency operation is the same it doesn’t matter. There are operators that combine(d) -700 and -800 into one card despite the difference in number of overwing exits. Alaska Airlines also has one safety card for the A319/A320 despite the difference in overwing exits. Of course Alask...
