In sim I like the 727. As a passenger I still like the 727, just dont ask me why, just always liked it since I was a kid.


You too huh? It was the first "Big" airplane that I flew on when I was a kid as a birthday gift my dad and I flew from cleveland to baltimore for the day..:-)

In the Sim it's definitely the 737...in real life I love the comfort of the 777 (especially when I'm in those full-out beds in business class zooming across the Atlantic!)

Well,I am a big fan of the 737-2xx series...I like the engine design(I don't think there are major differences apart from that with the other 737...).I am a bit confused-the MDs and DCs are from McDonnell Douglas ,right?Does Boeing construct any of them though? ??? ???

Stingray. MD was bought by boeing, for a while they took over the building of some of MD's planes, the DC10 was converted into the MD10 given a new glass cockpit mainly for the freight companys. a few more MD88's were built and the MD11 was finished off.
