Sorry guys... I had Planet confused with Sunworld. Now that B757200ER mentioned it...
We have some guys that work where I am that were from Sunworld, the owner owns/owned some resorts and started an airline to shuttle people back and forth. DHL either was going to or did some training for Sunworld, they were asking some of the DHL 727 drivers if they wanted to fly there (Sunworld) on time off.

About 40 727's, all the -100 and -200 non-advanced are gone. They were all replaced with 200 "advanced". Thats an oxymoron if you ask me... an airplane thats on the average of 30 years old shouldnt have the label advanced in its name. Ever get to fly one? Was an easy fun airplane to fly, I spent 5 years in it before stepping farther back in time to the DC-8.

You're lucky to have flown a DC-8; many years from now, you'll be telling young pilots you flew it, and they'll be very impressed.

I have a feeling that many years from now I'll still be telling young pilots that I still fly it. Upgrade at Astar is almost 7 years to go from the back seat to the right seat... IM guessing I wouldnt see a left seat there for another 10 years, thats 20 years to Captain. Once the age 65 change goes into effect it sure will change those current numbers.

Saw one of the "New Dawns" in EGSS the other day. Paint is already pealing from the upper fuesalage just in front ot the tail... It's down to the green. One would think with what they charge for a seat, they could afford a decent paint job. Well thats what happens when you use Earl Schibe. Next time better use MAACO.

It's a pity really, I see many extemely attractive 40 +ish something French women in Paris. It is a shame Airbus can't mirror their women!
