Did you ever wonder how Boeing produces over forty 737 airplanes a month?

1. Wait...

Bring the plane back! I have this extra bolt and I don't know where it was supposed to go...

2. How to make an airplane.

I liked the little extra notch in the top of the painting hanger door.

4. I used to have a housemate who worked in a place that converted passenger planes for cargo.

No fancy conveyor belt for seats going out of the plane, they'd just heave them out the door. He brought a few seats home and we made living room furniture out of them. Yep, bachelor pad, video games, VCR, and fully reclining coach airline seats.

One of the reason's I hate flying is that for the seats I can afford, my knees hit the back of the seat in front of me. I either have to raise my feet off the floor, or sit with my knees so far apart as to annoy the people sitting next to me.

Flying is nothing like it was when I was a kid and grandma was buying the tickets.

15. I woulda loved those seats in my bachelor pad

the best we roomies ever did was talk our friend into letting us borrow the back seat from his Bronco. It was a wide bench seat and had ash trays in each armrest so it was very convenient. Sat at just the right height to watch the B/W TV on the milk crates.

Only downside was it tipped over pretty easy. We ended up on our backs with ashes in the air more than once. We were too high to stop and figure out a way to stabilize it.

8. The Boeing factory tour

is one of the top tourist destinations in Washington, but its not the 737 line you can visit. The 747/757/787 lines in Everett...

But I did go to the Museum of Flight. I enjoyed LBJ's Air Force One,and the tour of The Concorde.

10. Anyone old enough to remember the 1953-1958 TV show "The Life of Riley"?

Riley and his buddy Gilles worked as riveters in an airplane factory. That's amazing 40 planes a month.

12. Oh yeah

"What a revoltin' development THIS is!"

13. Can you remember that and not what happened 10 minutes ago?
