Sorry Fgwfan, but what was the point of that post?

evil_hippo · 24th August 2005, 18:22

To amuse us perhaps. That was a stupid comment Jamie.

If you've got nothing to add to this discussion, then don't say anything.

I watched a show about them on ITV2 "Airline USA" a few weeks ago.

I've seen pictures of the planes before and meant to of asked if they were owned or part owned by Stagecoach
Can you claim copyright for a train livery being used on a plane?

Do yourself a favour Jamie. Get a bus to the nearest hospital and ask for a humour implant.

evil_hippo was right, it was to amuse readers. It was a parody to some extent of an SWT 450 announcement.

South West Airlines was used as it was the closest thing I could think of to suggest it was a pee-take of SWT. Didn't know they actually existed...

Quantas never crashed.

South West Airlines don't have First Class.
