fojimmie james is right on in his statements. first off, the pictures show a 737 not a 727

second, he indicates that 737-200's aren't doing that well safety wise...which is very true in the aviation third world.

barit1 is right, a well maintained 737-200 would do just fine...key words WELL MAINTAINED...also add well trained pilots, good wx radar and the like.

take a good look at one picture showing the horizontal stabilizer trim setting (exterior marks).


airtransport: thanks for posting ac previous history...I flew it about 7 years ago...well maintained then, more advanced version than some with very nice auto throttle, the big gyros and better autopilot than some earlier ones we had. Better wx radar too.(than earlier versions)
