Talking of Boeing 732’s while waiting at Gatwick for a monarch flight from Alicante,which was running 5hrs late,i went for a drive around the airport perimeter road trying to find a nice spot for landing aircraft..i saw the Ryanair “Hertz” 732 in real life,looks absolutly terrible
One of the best flights ive ever had was on a Air Canada 767 LHR-Calgary, almost 9hrs on a plane with 2 engines.
The 767 gave airlines a choice befor then it was operate a 747 for long haul routes or operate nothing…The 767 opened up many more options for airlines that didnt want the 747..It was economical,great payload and range. Your 4Vs2 engines debate is laughable at best…the average customer only cares about his/her plane getting them to their destination on time..and with far more realiable engines around than 20 years ago the 4Vs2 debate is really a non starter.
it was rather Ironic really…before the Beluga,Airbus had to use a Boeing aircraft,ableit modified one…those boys in seattle must have been wetting themselves
AND DONT TURN THIS INTO AN AIRBUS Vs BOEING THREAD…. :dev2:
