The picture is of a 737-700 south west painted the pontoons under the wings orange on the 737NGs (-700,-800) to distinguish them from the classics (-300, and -500) in the fleet. There where some gates in the system for a time that could not have 2 NGs parked next to eachother so they made the visually distinctive.…

Its like they’re going for a Best of Hammond.

I love Aston’s classic, not at all ripped off by Ford, grille. And I realize it’s just the angle/color/light.

I’m pretty sure you can’t open a door in-flight. They open inwards, and the cabin pressurization holds them tight.

We still do military spending better than anybody.

Where do you buy this “willpower”? I haven’t seen it on the shelves anywhere. Is the drug even legal? Do you mix it with the water or do you take it separately?

Which begs the question, why two islands? Fortunately, I am on my lunch break, and found the following at https://www.thalesgroup.com/en/united-kingdom/news/carriers-innovative-control-tower-supply-chain-success-story:

He must be referring to the ship’s acceleration.

Yeah, but 2,250,000 of them are scalpers and currently sitting unsold on Amazon and Ebay for $200 each.

Holy crap I actually want this let me pre-order

Worth mentioning: Unless I’m seeing this wrong, it looks like these are unique controller ports that mimic the SNES port but are smaller. So unlike the NES Classic where they were just Wii Classic Controllers (and could be used on either system) it looks like these might only be usable on the SNES Classic.

What sucks is these will be in short supply and jerks will be posting them for triple the price or more. I’d love to have one for my collection even though I already have most of the games and a Retron5. I will not however pay a ridiculous premium for one.

Jokes aside, I’m calling limited numbers on this one too, there’s no way Nintendo is going to let something so popular compete with the system it just released.

I would’ve bought an NES Classic if I’d ever actually seen one in a store. I’m assuming this will be the same.

All of my excitement is completely squashed, knowing it will be a bitch to get my hands on one. Assholes. You know they’re not gonna make nearly enough to meet demand, and are gonna get snapped up by scalpers.

And when they invariably only release fifty of these things worldwide, the sudden spike in downloads of emulators and emulated games will herald a mighty DMCA wave across of the land.

Awesome news for the five scalpers who will buy them all and sell them to the rest of us for $500.
