        Oh yeah baby! Bruum bruum! Show me those smokey blades! Can I suck your turbine hub caps? Yeah baby!

        Oh wait! You’re an Airbus? I thought Airbuses were uptight! Compared to everyone’s friend the very loose Boeing. The 373 gives everyone as many cheap rides as they will pay for. But watch out for emergency exit doors man!
