Everyone, I am starting a collection of safety cards (the news you find in the seat pocket in front of you).  I don't know how I want to get them but I was hoping that some of you can start getting a few obscure ones for me.    I'll be on a 717 tomorrow.   I'll pay for any shipping via PayPal. 

I have a Mesa crj900
United 738/739
United express Emb 145
Republic emb 170/175

Isn't it illegal to take these off an airplane?!

If there are any in your possession, then let me know.  We got to make sure everyone has the card in front of them so they know how to properly kiss their butt goodbye.   Please do not steal.

Sorry, but Ryanair's are stuck to the back of the seat!

Well, how else would you get these? It's not like you can buy the in the onboard shop or so...

I'm sure Ryanair will sell one to you for a fee

When I flew Ryanair, only one return trip, after landing I just asked the fa if I could get one of them. The pilot then gave me one spare. Most personell on board enjoy aviatian enthousiasts and their crazy hobbies so if there is a spare one, theyll give you one :)

Perhaps I should send a letter to all of these companies????  I would love to figure out how.

I sent one to SWA and United.  I will send more when I have time.  I'd be much happier if I could find more obscure ones, though.

With SWA you will be more likely to have your request accepted if you write it with crayons on some toilet paper than a formal letter, lol  :D

You should have mentioned it 2 weeks ago.  I would have had for you a 738 United, 753 United (I guess these 2 are not that rare), Cessna 402 and a Piper Aztec

Come to think of it I could get you one for a BAe Jetstream 32. I would have to email it to you though.

JS, what were the latter two like? Were they commercial passenger planes?

I read a DL DC-9 30/40/50 safety card on Friday, then put it back in the seat back pocket of N775NC. I will repeat that again on Monday in your honor.

As you fly DC-9 so often (as you claim) why do you still bother reading those safety cards? I only read them in "new" types that I fly on first, or when I sit in an exit row I haven't yet sat in to re-memorize how the window thingys work, or just in case the emergency exit doors.

Got a 712 from airtran.  Thanks to a member who lives 10 minutes from me, I may be able to get a bunch of 737 cards.

I appreciate the help and will post the final work.

Honestly, I don't usually read them, but I made a special effort to be able to troll in this thread afterwards.
