United is dead to me.

I didn't used to like instagram when I thought it was just a bunch of crappy photographers putting filters on bad pictures trying to make it look artsy. When facebook was no longer just a cool place to hang and keep up with what my friends were doing, I moved most of my posts onto instagram. It's a lot harder to get political on there and a lot easier to just share pictures of what is going on in my life with a little blurb.

I think what's ruined it for me are the "social media influencers", the egregious use of filters, and the dime store philosophers: Some dude sitting on a rock with a "successories" quote after it.

Agree. I like scrolling through and mostly seeing neat airplane pictures and what people are eating on the other side of the globe, often with humorous captions.

I've liked the addition to follow hashtags. I'm not a huge airplane nerd, just for airliners. So seeing the pictures of narrow and widebodies flying all around the world is really cool.

Haven’t read the thread because TLR. Anyone tried dipping Biscoff in OJ? It serliusouly tastes like key lime pie. LITERALLY. Yes I used it correctly.

With a cut that clean I’d assume the cockpit went to a museum or became a FTD/Simulator.

Perhaps the most qualified person on JC to offer this opinion? (Wondering exactly how many airplanes you've flown to their death?)

It went to a museum in Germany.

Deutsches Museum: Boeing 707

in fact, I had to dig this up. N7515A in your a.net photo, I snapped a pic of at IGM getting scrapped in early 1990.

Saw this and my first thought was, "oh great another Boeing that needs a tail stand"!

I used to bring packages of those things back from AMS. And they basically just glued themselves together in the pantry because "the thrill was gone, baby".

I havent touched a biscoff since the 90's. I rode ATA from MCO to MKE and the flight attendants gave me three sleeves of those things, a bag full of Malibu and a bunch of cans of pineapple juice. Ever since then, ick.

The Kroger in Opelika, AL has biscoff peanut butter. It's amazing.

No, don’t make a joke about my mom...
