Attention Rampers, don't forget the tail stand...
I loved working at the ramp with FedEx loading and off loading the 757 aircraft.
One issue with the 737 series, especially with the extended fuselage, is that fact it only has single axle mains. With the weight and cg changes you have on a freighter, a dual axle main is much safer and more stable. Think 757 main gear. Can you imagine losing your two tires on one side???
That's why I think the 757 is the best cargo aircraft for short flights instead of the 737.
Wow she looks good
I wonder how many containers this aircraft can carry? a 737-400 carries 11 top deck.
