  3. 58 years since Snoopy first appeared as the WWI Flying Ace in a Peanuts strip published on October 10, 1965. The WWI Flying Ace is perhaps Snoopy's most well-known persona. Schulz wrote and drew more than 400 strips featuring the Flying Ace across four decades, each one chronicling Snoopy's adventures hunting down the Red Baron. When not in the air, the Flying Ace is in the tavern quaffing root beer and trying to forget the charming French lasses who flit through his heart.

  10. That is a pull out procedure. You hooked up to the back of the nosegear and pulled the aircraft back. Whole different technique and a lot of fun to do! Did many at T2 as some of the gates were too close to the building to do a proper 'pushback' using the big 800 series paymover.
