Airline safety cards?.. Starting a collection

[ucfknightryan]

UNNECESSARILY LONG THREAD HIJACK!

Sorry 

alex, sorry if my posts came off as anything other than joking/amusing.  I'm not trying to correct/argue with anyone, we just wandered on to a topic that interests me a bunch (ways English differs between different countries that speak it) so I've accumulated a bunch of entertaining (to me anyway) trivia on it and figured I'd share since it came up.  Sometimes I don't know when to shut up 

[exchlbg]

The way you debate about your language; now we non-natives get really confused !
I  just use a kind of mix of learned and heard-somewhere without any definite clue....

[Jona L.]

I owe you...  can't wait to use these... 

I'll wait a little more, to get some more for you

Monday/Tuesday I'll be OFF, let's see how many I have till than. Maybe I can get a TK A320/21 for you, so you'll have all a/c we get from them. TK777 is very rare here, so very unlikely I'll ever get one of those. But you'll have nearly all the fleet

Cheerio,

So.... is my DC-9 Card rare or what!

So.... is my DC-9 Card rare or what!

LOL in Europe for sure... no DC-9s in use, except if you count the MD-81-83 as DC-9s (which they technically are).

But in the USA?! I only say: Delta Airlines LOL

[swiftus27]

They're ancient planes

[Atlantische Zeiler]

All of Delta's current DC-9s are old Northwest planes. They had a very old fleet

[Jona L.]

Still doesn't change the point, that DC-9s are a usual sight around ATL and nearby.

[Jona L.]

Added up from today:

TK A321
Anadolu Jet B737-700 (looks a lot like TKs one, since it's a subsidiary company).

Too bad there isnt a TK 421 (props to those who get that one)

LOL never seen that (nor Star Trek)

[Jona L.]

some more addements:

TK - Türk Hava Yollari - B777-300ER (completing you TK fleet)
AB - AirBerlin - A330-200
AB - AirBerlin - A330-200 D-ABXA/XB only
AB - AirBerlin - A320
IR - IranAir - A310-200/300 (a real rarity, just due to a diversion from CGN due to security staff strike there)

Those AB ones are thanks to the colleagues from our sister company who handle the former LTU planes of AB, of whom I mobilized the one or another guy to supplement some cards

I guess that is sufficient for sending a new package. Will see to get to post office on Monday (maybe get some more cards tomorrow but pretty unlikely), buy a new envelope and send them to you.

Would be nice to know if the other package already arrived, and also if your address is still valid (I think you said you were moving?!?).

cheers,
[SC] Jona L.


EDIT:
Added two pictures of he collection... needed ~50% of the size of my bed to position them all

[swiftus27]

DUDE EPIC!   Went out looking for a new house today...  the wall is a top consideration

Found (!!) an EK 773 one in one of our company cars (LOL!) yesterday at work.

So all the above + EK B773/W.


Will send package tomorrow when post offices open again.

cheers,
[SC] Jona L.

P.S. did the other round arrive yet or not?!

[Jona L.]

Since I am drowning in work and work-related issues, I have not yet managed to get to the post office.

Anyways, in the meantime, I also grabbed an SK A319 for you . Maybe get some more tomorrow, will have to see. Yet I have to see when I can get to the PO... might take some more days.

cheers for now,

[SC] Jona L.

It's alright, bro... supposedly have an offer coming in tomorrow and they guy wants us to rent (yes, rent our own home) for a few months.   It will allow us to do as we choose if we want to build or wait for the ideal house to come on the market.

[swiftus27]

WOW!

So I got this mega package from Jona.   

I would display but I am officially moving in 3-4 weeks.  I will put all on display when the map goes up in my new office. 

OKAY BRO, MASSIVE SPECIAL LOVE FOR GETTING AN IRAN AIR CARD (A310)!!!!!!!     That's AWESOME !!!!!!
