jetblues,

Do you have that SGR data for the 737-3/4/5 series???

I always reckon it is good to have a ball park of fuel flows etc.. so if the "magic glass !!!!!'s it self you have some rules of thumb, remember they do still have 727's F28's westwinds DC9's etc..... flying without all the magic glass , just another a/c with a fancy computer!

BTW I pose a question, a guy with a say 1000 hours on a 737-200 or similar type of old school conventional instruments, transition to the 737 NG's, do you think they will have better raw data jet flying skills than the guy who has only flown modern LCD EFIS planes with the same amount of jet hours as the -200 guy???
