How many of saa's 737's had/have integral airstairs (200 and 800 models)
I see some Nationwide ones have, how many do ?
Thanks

SAA
None of the -800s.
Initially, some of the -200s had, but they were removed for standardisation. When -200s were leased a couple of years ago, some had, but they were not used.
Nationwide
I have no idea.

Yes most of Nationwide B737 200's have airstairs. Not quite sure right now, but will let you know. Very handy when operating into Africa!

Safair also operate 732's with airstairs (with Safair titles).

Dean, what is the point of putting SAFAIR titles on the airstairs :confused: :} :}
If Interair still use the ex-Aero Zambia machines, then they had airstairs aswell........

Er, in my confused, Monday morning frame of mind, I suppose I was trying to say that, as Safair also lease out some of their 737s to other operators, and those aircraft are painted in that operators colours, then the 732's I was referring to were the those operated in Safair colours :\
See, clear as mud :8 :)
