Recommended Posts

Another angle of FFD and also, if you guys look closely at the background, part of Kuching aviation history is now gone, the old Kuching Airport terminal pre 1960s were being demolished... :cray:

You forgot to mention the old RMAF Nuri hangar had also been demolished to make way for something new?

Well I suspect FFD is ex-South African Airways.

 

This first flew on 20-12-2000 and was delivered to South African Airways on 17-01-2001 registered as ZS-SJI.

 

That is why it has eyebrows... :)

You're welcome. For the windows, I am not sure. All body barrel are standard. However, one of the main difference is that airlines choose their own seat configuration. Therefore, they may plugged some windows for galley or toilet or other purpose. The area above the engines is actually emergency exit, the legroom are more (therefore less window) but seats are non-recline to aid movement should there be any emergency.

i think the place where he mentioned is the place where the aircond riser ducts are located, in any 737 series it is common between BS500 to BS540 (just in front of center wing tank forward bulkhead)
