    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.

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

    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.
