Hi all

Bringing the family back to NZ for Christmas for Xmas and New Years. Currently in HK where they have free wifi (very civilised!) and thought you'd be interested in a couple of shots.

The first is the view from the window of NZ38 (Boeing 777-200) over China somewhere (!) and the second what I think it a 737-700? Some of you guys would know better than I but that 737 must be pretty old by now!

all the best
Jay

A beautiful Xmas day Ian!

Can anyone identify which 737 that actually is? It says 737-700 on the nose gear cover but there isn't such a thing. I looked up Air China on wiki and the earliest 737 they run are 300's. This one looks older than a 300.

At first I thought it was a 300, could be wrong.

You're probably right. Just confused by the 737 - 700 designation. Difficult to see on the photo.

Its Not a Classic winkyy.gif biggrin.gif ... The Chinese have a very weird registration , most all 737s are hard to define , the 700 s are in a sense a 800 , internal are different , Hells if it was a 707 i would have no hesitation to jump on board if that,s your fear . biggrin.gif
