It's taken me 555 fights aboard 173 different aircraft to get this far. The next highest mileage total on aircraft by variant is aboard 737-900s with 371 flights totaling 488830 miles. ... Who knew? ...
so of course I had to go back to the logbook too
I'm just short of 600 flights and just over half a million total miles on ALL variants of the 737
- 180 -800
- 128 -200 including three on the Combi variant in all-passenger configuration (68 of those, including one Combi, were part of my Boeing Flight Test tenure)
- 113 -900
- 57 -300
- 55 -700
- 36 -400 including one Combi
- 24 -500
- one -100 (PeoplExpress, 1983)
- one -600 (WestJet, 2016; part of my "Tour de 737")
