Air Stairs
Unique to the Boeing 727 is the rear Air Stair which allowed the aircraft to disembark passengers at airports without their own stairs or passenger ramps.
Cockpit
The flight deck of the Boeing 727 required 3 crew - the Captain, the co-pilot, and the engineer. There was room for a 4th person in the cockpit - the jump-seat - used by auxiliary crew for training or monitoring purposes, or personnel catching a ride.
A flight of fantasy rewriting the only unsolved sky-jacking in history!
What if DB Cooper never left the plane? What if the ransom money never left the plane? What if there were accomplices who aided and abetted him? What if something else was going on entirely and the sky-jacking a coverup for that? What if it was just an elaborate prank gone too far?
What if YOU’d been onboard?
What if YOU’d been onboard?
You’ve been invited to participate in a Gala event in Seattle. It is the inaugural fundraising event for the SVLC so refusal was not an option! The flight itself is also going to be a special affair, with extra staff to make sure you are well taken care of, and arrive in the best of spirits to ensure the gala meets the fundraising goals.
Well, that’s not the whole story – the flight is the fundraising gala. The proceeds of the flight are the funds that are being raised. Starting with the tickets to get on the virtual flight itself.
During the flight there are opportunities to participate in additional events on board for which there is a cover charge. and there are perks during the flight – for instance, you can elect to visit the flight deck and speak with the captain personally.
There is even the usual AirMall catalogue shopping experience where you can purchase luxury and essential items all tastefully decorated and augmented with the SVLC emblems. These will be shipped to you at your destination address, or you home address, whatever is convenient for you.
EXTRA SPECIAL – the inboard mixologist will teach and train you to make the special SVLC cocktail designed for this flight only. This unique drink will not be found in any recipe books, nor can be ordered at any bar – except the bar on Flight SVLC! And, if you opt for this training perk, your bar!
In an abundance of caution, Conundrum Air is also placing an undercover air marshal on this flight to ensure the safety of the passengers – with all these luminaries, important donors, and supporters of the cause – all this philanthropic goodwill and generous gifting, best make sure no untoward mishaps occur – better safe than sorry.
Everyone onboard is guaranteed a good time, and a safe flight!
Everyone’s drive to be generous and supportive of this cause is equally valued. Your willingness to play with us IS the best gift we can receive. And there is the pesky matter of running this virtual flight, and all the goings on of running the whole organization that require, well, not to put to fine a point on it, cold, hard cash.
Please choose any seat category that works for you – as we said already – every one onboard is guaranteed a good time and a safe flight. But the closer you are to First Class, the better time you’ll have!
And as is also common practice, the cabin staff is at liberty to upgrade you to a better seat or cabin class – pay attention to opportunities you will have on board to play games, answer quizzes, solve puzzles or to flatter or otherwise ingratiate yourself with the cabin crew for those elusive and sought-after upgrade coupons. Even our valued passengers in steerage may find themselves upgrading all the way into First Class. So everyone has a chance at the best time of all. And a safe flight. Guaranteed.
Yes, this is virtual – but to get the best experience, the following highly recommended suggestions are made –
Plan to connect using a laptop or desktop system. Make sure to have the latest version of Zoom installed – current version is 5.8. Tablet or phone devices can connect but will not be able to generate the full experience. Chromebooks are not advised, either.
Being able to send audio and video is essential for some of the activities that will take place – the full experience will not be possible without full participation.
To be able to use the game’s backdrops and video features, a reasonably powerful system is required. Zoom will inform you if your system is not capable of these feats when you attempt to use them. We’ll have a pre-flight test on Oct 29 at 6pm PT, for you to connect to confirm everything is working, and to provide technical support to troubleshoot any issues.
The flight is scheduled to take 3 hours – and there is a short 10 minute break in the middle.
There is also a highly trained mixologist on-board to demonstrate some rare and elusive exquisite cocktails specially reanimated for this flight! Ingredient lists will be communicated prior to the event.
