    US 737's Getting Eyebrows Plugged

    So I am sitting above the piano bar and looking out above all the action and I noticed that US has elected to start plugging brow windows which saves about 500 LBS. It looks pretty slick actually.

    This mod is happening industry-wide and is available for all versions of the 737 (including the 200). I am 90% certain that a "plug" mod is also available for DC-9/MD-80s now as well.



    Here are a couple shots of a plugged US Airways bird:

    After posting the thread I went to another much higer elevated location andsaw most of C con full of 737's plugged. Apparently all of US's 737's will be getting it. They look very sharp if I do say so myself. Also, the only airplanes I am noticeing in bluetop colors lately are some 321's and orig 170's. Midatlantic birds mostly.

    I've known that any 737 can have this done, but I was more curious as to which US would be doing it to.

    How long does the change take?
