EL AL brought in a 738 today and left at about 945 to go to Paris. Didnt know it had legs to go trans atlantic!.

That's probably the one someone posted a couple of weeks ago as he spotted it at the Boeing field outside Seattle. Probably flew over in legs. It was in the States for some maintenance at Boeing if I had to guess. Definitely not for commercial flying purposes.

Sorry no camera today--Checking flight aware this was a flight direct from Boing Field arrived this morning and departed to Paris. It was a new bird.

Unconfirmed, but my sources at TLV tell me we may see their 75s this summer at JFK.

Whooops.....I was so preoccupied with that National DC-8 that I missed that one.
Hopfully there will be another delivery flight through JFK.

El-Al 757s......wow. I'd love to see that.

I wish we got the former NAA 738 hybrid here.

They'd have to put the stop at either LHR or STN. Can a non-winglet 752 make a 3000nm westbound stage? Did El Al even bother to ETOPS-certify the 757 fleet? Including the stop, that's got to be something like 12 or 13 hours on a narrowbody. Yeesh.
