Guess I'm just a bit jaded on things like this.
Earlier today, The University of Alaska Anchorage's Aviation Department received a new piece of equipment: a Boeing 727 donated to the college by FedEx. A big to-do was made about its arrival at Merrill Field, the municipal airport this facility is connected to, this afternoon...something which I opted to pass on.
I mean, as an educational tool I can see a multitude of benefits with it, and it does look pretty cool, but at its most basic level...it's an airplane landing at an airport.
Whoop de doo.
If it had been Air Force One, I might have been impr--well, no, not really. I got 2 years worth of an eyeful of that thing back at Andrews.
