Title: Look at what is visiting MN Post by: Fuzzy on November 27, 2007, 07:32:57 AM In town on a PR trip visiting Northwest executives. It's due to take off this morning at 10:00am for a demo flight and then leave tomorrow for LA. I'm a little intrigued because I've flown in most models of commercial planes out there and would like to see the inside of one of these.

Title: Re: Look at what is visiting MN Post by: Fuzzy on November 27, 2007, 07:54:18 AM Why do you hate 'Merkan aviation? Not aviation, just the 'merkan airline companies. [sm_devil] I've followed Boeing and Airbus and the bets they've made recently (787, A380) are interesting. Northwest flies both companies planes but seems to be shying away from the A380. With their large share of Asian routes I'm a little surprised. But if NW ever were to take delivery they'd pack as many seats as physically possible into one of these and it would just be a larger flying cattle car.

Unfortunately when NW execs look at that picture they see 6-8 coach seats. Title: Re: Look at what is visiting MN Post by: Aske on November 27, 2007, 10:29:00 AM more like 12-15
