September 4, 201114 yr Hi all, A friend snapped this pic from a cockpit recently and I cannot, for the life of me, figure out which variant of B737 this is. Hopefully one of you can help. This pic was taken onboard a Middle-East flight... Cheers
September 4, 201114 yr Commercial Member Look at the registration - JY-XXX is a Jordanian registration. Take a look on airliners.net for Jordanian B737s. Looks like it's probably a 'Jordan Aviation' operated -300, judging by pics on a.net at least. <a href="http://www.flyaoamedia.com"><img src="http://angleofattack.s3.amazonaws.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/aoasiggy.png"/></a> Nick Collett i5 2500k @ 4.4GHz, GTX 480, 8GB Corsair 8-8-8-24, 300GB WD Velociraptor, Corsair HX850W
September 4, 201114 yr More info on it in case you were curious: It was originally N169AW operated by America West (although 33 is the Boeing customer code for Air Canada I believe and it is a 737-33A). Nevertheless, it first flew on the 17th of November 1986, the Boeing makers serial number is 23630 and it has CFM56-3B2 engines. It went to Jordan Aviation in 2002 and was registered as JY-JAB. Other operators have included UM Air, Aqaba Airlines, Toumai Air, but it has always been registered JY-JAB after it was N169AW. Al Alan Bradbury Check out my youtube flight sim videos: Here
September 4, 201114 yr although 33 is the Boeing customer code for Air Canada I believe and it is a 737-33A). Al 33 is the AC code AFAIK, but the code on that airframe is actually 3A and not 33, if it were 33 it would've been a Boeing 737-333... Rónán O Cadhain.
