I was about to say I know exactly who would say that from ZDC, but she works the south sectors down by TYI and ILM. Do ya'll always fly the lei'd 739 into DCA? Kyle Rodgers
December 4, 201213 yr Do ya'll always fly the lei'd 739 into DCA? I think it might only be -800SFP. I'm not sure. It was my first time and it was an -800 in and out the next day. No Leis on the -900s. There might be one on the new -900ER. I don't think it's kitted for ETOPS, so in that case, there is no lei. Matt Cee

All the pics I have from spotting at Gravelly Point park are of 8s with leis, but I swear I flew a 9 out of there on a route off of FlightAware that used a 9 (but I didn't see the plane in person, so I probably just combined the 8s I saw and the 9 in the sim). An overnight? Hopefully they put you up somewhere good in Crystal City. Kyle Rodgers
