Chartered 767 to TLS, two days of fun at the Airbus factory and eats all the foods and drinking all the wine, then bringing back a factory-fresh A330-900 NEO. Before, of course, @DPApilot gets his paws on it and makes it reek of Marlboro Reds!

The 767s are the “flex fleet” so there’s a cache of them around for various activities
 
One of your guys on pacific common today said they were flying a 330-900 NEW ENGINE OPTION. I had this imaginary conversation in my mind where i asked what engine, and he actually knew, and then i realized I probably don’t know what engine i have. That’s like, mad details. Like, it is a big fanny thing, but way smaller than whatever he was working with. But there is only one of our jets getting cuckolded, and it isn’t a 737......

Sorry, that was an irrelevant mental exercise. This is pretty awesome, I hope you enjoy the trip!!

For a period of time when it was a Shiny Jet novelty, I was logging A320 and A320neo time separately. Then I realized I had to use a calculator to update airline apps so I went back through and un-separated them. If only I could have that 45 minutes of my life back.
 
Having a great time. Way too much pampering, tours and fuss. I‘m finally to the hotel, I get an hour of free time and the party starts again.

Here are a few more photos. we are “Feeeerbeeeeedeeeen” from taking photos inside the final assembly plant, but we had a private photographer taking photos which I’ll be able to share once I get them

But here are a few from the day.

Certainly a day when I couldn’t give less of a poop about The Lavatory. LOL

But which of the 737’s are they putting your name on, so I can be flying @derg around

It's been on a -900 for the past couple years, but I think it's coming off soon with the new group. I'll find out the ship number for ya, but i need to hit the sack.
