[Seattle]

Im a 14.5er living in Seattle. WAs born in LA then moved to Kentucky when I was 2 before moving to SEattle when I was 3. Ive also lived in greece fro about half a year.

(Both my parents are from Europe)

My favorite airline is UA and I wish that they'ed add ANC,SAN,JFK/EWR,HNL, and all those other destinations back. I dont like NW/DL and I have mized feelings for AS, but Iwish that they would add SLC,DTW,IAH,AUS,ATL, MSY, JFK, and IAD. As for Horizon, they are my fav regional carrier and I love the Q400 with QX's service. I think they should new destinations in Canada and the Inter-mountain west like Castlegar, Redding (direct), Crescent City (direct), Pocatello, readd Butte, Moses Lake, Olympia, etc.

My fav plane of all time is the 757-200 followed by the -300. Then comes the A321-200 and the Tu-154M in a tie. Followed by 767,777-300,747,A340,737,777-200,MD-11,A330.

I hate all other A320 series planes and I hate the DC-9/MD-80 planes

Most used plane on AM.... 737-sometyhing.

Don't want to get off topic but AS is announcing a new city pretty soon. Spec is either ATL, SLC or MYS or is it MSY I keep getting the code mixed up and too tired to double check but it is NOLA.

[Seattle]

I know... they someone said that it wont be SLC,IAH,ATL,PHL, or someother place

My money is on AUS or MSY.

I also think they are going to start PDX-ORD

I was in your fine country earlier this month. Got to see the Mayan Queen IV docking in port on her maiden voyage. That's a huge boat.

No one else in my family is remotely interested, so I never went. Plus, it seemed on the tad expensive side.

Like Jan, my first flight sim was Flight Simulator 2.0 (I mean, check out the sweet graphics). Unlike most everyone else here, that was also my last flight sim (well, I did win a copy of Flight Simulator X at a vendor meeting, but I only played that for about an hour).

[yourefired]

Well some of you know more about me than I care to let you know, so I'm not going to mention my name. It'll likely compromise my anonymity here But here's some more information: I live in California, and I go to university in New York. Econ major/law and society minor with law school and lawyer aspirations. I'm 20.

Planes I don't like:

- A380 (from a business and aesthetic standpoint)
- The entire UA fleet (this is specific to the UA fleet; 777's operated by Asiana, for example, are fine by me )
- All regional jets (horribly uncomfortable, and some of them ugly to boot)
- Russian planes (they look, well, so ugly)
- 737's (they're too short)


Most used airplane in AM (as of Januari 20 2009):
I haven't played in a while, but I think it was the A320 series and the A330-200.

-Doing whatever problem set/homework my professors decide to throw at me
-Looking for an internship in a horribly down economy
-Studying for the LSAT (alas, I still haven't been released from the death grip of standardized exams)

I guess most of the old AM'ers noe me. I am Mark and i live in plain old boring Perth, AUS. I am a Chinese Descent that is 16 turning 17 soon. Born in Perth, lived in Malaysia (my parent's home country + my fav country)for my first three years before returning to Perth. Aviation-Addiction prob started on my first flight when i was two weeks old on Malaysia Airlines (back then known as Malaysia Airlines Systems!). FYI, i am highly biased.

Aviation-Addiction Information (rhymes!):

Favoured Airlines (From top):
Malaysia Airlines - Great service, seats, entertainment, toilet =]

Favoured Airplanes (From top):
-Boeing 777 (-200, -200ER, -300, -300ER) - beautiful, unique, stylish, comfortable, modern

Dislike/Hate Airplanes (From bottom):
-A320s (A318, A319, A320, A321) - But to admit, very profitable in Airline Mogul =]
