The 737-232 was my first Captain assignment with Delta. It was fun and easy to fly although a bit slow at cruise. It was much more modestly powered than the 75/76 I had just left. It was a good bit more busy in the cockpit without an FMS. It was like the old 727 days- spinning the course knob and double checking the Jepps each segment. Many takeoffs, even from the long runways at ATL on flights to IAH required full power. EGT's were right at the red-line until thrust reduction at 1,000'AGL. I must say that for passengers seated behind the wing, the reverse thrust operation was the most visible and dramatic (as was the noise on take-off).

I flew on both the -200 and -300 with Southwest and its like night and day. You knew when the JT-8D's fired up, that roar just permeates you. And you heard it on the ground before you saw the plane. It was a no nonsense engine, when you commanded full throttle, it gave you that and 10 cents more. And the lounge over the wing, yess! Always room in a -200 to stretch out, I made beeline for that seat and claimed that spot as my turf, dammit! When that door shut, I propped my feet on the opposing seat, tipped my hat down and zzzzzzed all the way to HOU from CRP, a nice 40 minute snooze.

Those were built by Rohr in San Diego/Chula Vista, now part of Goodrich Aerospace. Notice the long white 4-foot tube just forward of them? They were added to 737s because early flight tests showed that the downward thrust actually lifted the airplane off the ground during landing. Ooops!

Loved the old -200. Both B system pumps were electrical and you could run the A system through the Ground Interconnect. Made function testing quick and easy. The Classics and NGs had completely separate A and B systems with only one electric pump each... so things went much slower unless the engines were turning the engine driven pumps or you had a ground cart. Spoilers and thrust reversers were always locked into the open positions with physical locks to prevent accidents. The last one I worked on was Alaska Airlines -200 Combi over ten years ago. They were really rough... being used for gravel ops and very high cycle machines with lap joints and lots of patches.
