last 200-series flight?
I flew this afternoon on WestJet. The flight was full, which is good for WJA since they just announced that they are replacing their 737-200s ahead of schedule.
But on a sad note, that may very well have been my last flight on a 200-series since it’s getting harder and harder to find North American airlines that fly them. It’s not that I like to fly on them per se. Of course I love flying in general regardless of the type. But the 200-series was the first plane I flew on. And it was the aircraft that I unloaded luggage from as a baggage handler for Canadian Airlines.
It’s a good thing, though, that WestJet is replacing the 200-series aircraft because the way the guys in the flight deck slammed that poor plane onto the runway, those old planes aren’t going to last much longer.
