I am now based in DCA. Because I am commuting, I seem to be subjected to flying the 737's. I am an airbus f/a (chillers keep me cool and the vacuum pump toliets keep me sane) and do not write this because of such, but I have to tell all of you...the aircraft are falling apart.
Now I know management is notorious for reading what is out here, so I will direct this one for management. Every 737 I have worked on has had sticky worn carpet, peeling paint in the lavs, drawers that stick in the galley, worn out seats, and worn out overhead bins. Also, the outside paint jobs are sad.
Now I know we are piss poor, but these things set a tone to our customers that are ..,frankly, bad. I remember when it was the lcc who had the old planes and shabby interiors. Now it is the "legacy" carriers and we are the trend setter. This is NOT a good thing.
Management, if you have the balls, or are spying on here, what are you doing about this? I DO NOT care for smart a** remarks from the gang (which I can't prevent ), but i really do want to know if this is going to continue. And this doesn't even include the horrible condition of the other aircraft.
Management, hear me please...the dark blue paint ain't cuttin' it. The obsession with gray interiors has paid a high price. It doesn't wear well.
What are you going to do? Please don't whine about the $$$. Surely this is budgeted. What a minute, who am I fooling?
