A FlightMemory Line You Don't Want:

Photo of a BUF-Africa removal (deportation) flight preparing to leave BUF. Looks to me like a CO 757-200. Sorry for the semi-grainy appearance of the scan. Looks like a "C" on a white background printed just to the right of a CO 752. In the original, I can make out "639" on the landing gear flap, just after the "ETOPS \" designation. I couldn't find any CO 752 with an N number ending in 639.

Perhaps it's a 737, but I didn't want to scroll through all the N-numbers... :rolleyes:
It's a 735: N14639

Text under photo states that the a/c was headed BUF-Liberia, Ghana & Nigeria. That's a looooonnnggg flight in a 735.

Plus I don't think the 735 is ETOPs is it?

I'll keep looking.

I can only make out an "... S \" before the "639" on the landing gear flap. That looks like how ETOPS is usually designated on the landing gear flap, but I can't tell for certain because the picture doesn't show what comes before the "S"

That is a perfectly fine route in AM. :rolleyes::p:D

I hear CO is precluded from serving calzones on that flight by the Convention Against Torture. :p

Could be they got the wrong photo.

The dude in the foreground with the "Federal Agent" ICE Polo-Shirt on makes me think it ain't a local flight. Could be headed to Latin America, though, I suppose.

Also, I suspect CO wouldn't send one of its precious widebodies on such a flight, unless teh gubmint pays them substantially more than they make on pax and cargo on a TATL.

Probably not a lot of hold baggage on that flight. Perhaps they can make SID nonstop.

I am not volunteering to work that flight.

Speaking of which - what airline (aside from FR) would order the 739ERs with 28 inch pitch?
