Boeing Lounge 737 gate cooling tips

Does the 737 have the problem of the PACK filters freezing if you have the temperature set too cold in very humid stations? It's a common 757 problem. The flow reduces to almost zero because of it and it starts getting hot quickly. Then you need to blast the heat until chunks of ice are flying out of the cockpit gasper vents before putting it back to AUTO.

yes

Also, some of yall have your temp gauges in °F which is witchcraft

And yet the operators of planes with such gauges still can’t understand how to make the cabin comfortable despite having the scale denoted in their believed Freedom units.

(I spend enough time in the back of these contraptions that I have Opinions)

And if you’re gonna be stupid enough to willingly accept a plane for a Phoenix flight with an APU that had been deferred for days when it’s 105 degrees outside, maybe don’t board the return flight if the cabin temp with no pax onboard is already over 90? And don’t wait til you’re at the end of the runway to crossbreed the second engine! I know you have plans for the evening back home and don’t wanna delay things but killing the people your company relies on with heat stroke isn’t a good image.

I can always tell when I board my commute if the pilots either commute themselves or non-rev more than once a year by how much effort they put into passenger comfort. I’m getting annoyed that a lot of my commutes are being done on day turns flown by senior crews…
