737 NGX Pilots and cabin seats spotted!

Recommended Posts

For decorum's sake, let's just say they're testing all the electrical systems before putting on the last bit of skin. Or it could be a demo model, like those cutaway piston/steam engines you see in museums...

Not so sure that's a segway...I have my own ideas tongue.gif
Well, it looks like we found it before the plane is even released!However, looking at it from the first picture it definitely has wheels on it...

That's defiantly not the Pogo Stick, it has wheels on both sides. I would fathom we found one of their hidden secrets though.

Maybe they've developed a new codebase for the pogostick too, and added loads of new features, including wheels?

That's not a segway, that's a bass kicker for when the pilots crank up the tunes on those long flights (with a handle for easy loading/unloading) Just%20Kidding.gif

That looks like a pretty serious explosive decompression, it's a good job they were on the ground :( Al
Like this? hahab737-200-aloha-hawaii.jpgIn all seriousness though, it's a testament to Boeing's engineering and construction that that thing stayed together, especially with a semi-monocoque structure like the fuse. Typically they don't last too long with 50 percent of a cross section missing.For those interested: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aloha_Airlines_Flight_243

I'd argue the exact opposite. Over-engineering saved it in that the deck stayed together.The cause is much disputed, but I don't agree with the official conclusion that the entire structure failed simultaneously and without reason.Best regards,Robin.

No I agree,Its not a Segway. Its a lawnmower (old push style) there to help you mow the grass when you've landed on an outfield after a bad test day :( Cheers,David

It is a ginger to test the mental ability of passengers before allowing them into the aircraft. If one is able to fall over from it, it is too dangerous to allow that individual into a flying aircraft. So ticket fund returned.

I believe it was about 3 years ago when I actually met Mimi Tompkins. It was a Fly-in here at HNL. The only catch is I didn't know who it was until afterwards since she just introduced herself as Mimi.

There was another report I saw that speculated that the chief flight attendant, the only casualty of the flight, might have actually been the cause of the massive failure (not on purpose). The report speculated that when the one section failed, Ms. Lansing was sucked toward the hole. When she 'plugged' it, and the air suddenly stopped rushing out and repressurized the aircraft causing the rest of the area to blowout.On a lighter note and back on topic, you people really need a life!:(
