I'll bet when the bids came out from the front office for the

seat job on that bird, at least somebody trying for the seat
MUST
have been tempted to change his name to "Charlie Brown" :-))

Hey...ya have to admit......"Charlie Brown and the Great Pumpkin
are
arriving at gate 6" kind of has a certain "ring" to it :-))
I don't think the general public called it that, just the

I'd hate to have a name that mathced this airplanes nickname,

Oh sorry, thought you got it.
Kinda sorry I started this now!
