We need a 737 cross country group flight one weekend? Anybody share the same feelings? I don't know if we have had this one recently or at all...comments welcome.

Sure but I probably won't be able to make a weekend cross country one. Love the idea.

Guys, I am in process of carving together some events for April. One thing I am working on now is a trip down to Mexico. If we can get some specific destinations together, I would be more than happy on putting a "737 night" together. If you have any thoughts, please email me and I will see what I can do..

I think KLAS-KPDX would make a great flight. smile

I may be bias due to the fact that the Flightscenery PDX scenery just rocks. smile

Count me in whatever flight you choose. I love the 737.

Hey guys, I am still relatively new and getting to know the virtual world but I think we should fly down to TNCM (Princess Juliana Airport) AKA Maho Beach, for one of those MEMORABLE approaches. Hopefully not killing anyone in the process at the beach from out jetblast. After all, we all need to go to the good life every once in a while.

Ahhh. there was a time when pilots asked me about planning events........

There should be some fairly long 737-800 flights in the database. I think Delta may even fly one ATL to LAX in a 737.

Here you go. Longest flight in the database for a 737:
DVA1632 Leg 1 B737-800 Boston MA (BOS) to Los Angeles CA (LAX) 2,608 miles

Thats surly one long haul for a baby boeing! eek

Manuel,

I like the idea of some flights in the North West. PDX is a neat place to fly in and out of. How about a mandatory two leg flight with an option for the 3rd leg. For example, flight from KPDX to KSEA, that is only 129nm, but then continue onto Vancuver and optionally, fly back to PDX. A short hop like this will mean holding patterns, reduced speed, etc. if it gets crawded.

Just a thought.

By the way, congrats on your new position!
