Croc Dundee Posted November 19, 2004 Share Posted November 19, 2004 "Just a little bit of info on the 737. Starting with line unit 1650, the eyebrow windows on all models will be deleted. Sure does make the front end look a little different." Apparently this A/C will be going to Southwest. It would be nice to find a photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super 80 Posted November 19, 2004 Share Posted November 19, 2004 Pilots have told me those things drive them nuts, and they usually wind up blocking them with a clip board or something so they aren't blinded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canus Chinookus Posted November 19, 2004 Share Posted November 19, 2004 after flying a 737 for going on 4 years now, I don't ever remember using those annoying windows. If you need to look out those windows to see in a bank, you're in too steep of a bank... maybe they're supposed to be for starshots or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canus Chinookus Posted November 19, 2004 Share Posted November 19, 2004 modern aircraft? I'd guess the Hercules, but you could look to WWII bombers to find the real winners... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitch Cronin Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 I do believe this guy's got it beat: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flybye Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 Nobody can beat the Russkies for puttin windows in aircraft: This looks kinda like an airplane.....well, sort of, maybe? I think it wins though...so far. Could you imagine being asked to test fly that? "Hello, Yuri? It's Komrade Kamov here, we have new prototype for you to try!" According to the website, they had it up to 356.3 km/h!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
