Default Need help identifying plane in photo

I took a photo of a United Airlines plane in Detroit in March 2004.
I'm wondering whether it is a Boeing 737 or Airbus 319 or 320?

You can see it here. http://www.ackle.com/ebayualphotos.htm
Scroll down to the bottom of the page to see it.

Any help with this is appreciated. I sell some United items on eBay
and I want to sell the photo, but don't know what it is.

Thanks.

Sure looks like a 737 to me. The squashed looking engine cowls are
the giveaway. It's a pity the N-number isn't quite readable in the
photo.

It's N376UA.

To the original poster - I'm not sure you're going to have much luck
selling the photo. For example, here's a whole page of photos of the
exact same aircraft.

Yes, it's N376UA. Thanks for the link to that other site. Can't
believe how many shots there are of the same plane.

Thanks, everyone.

You never know. I once saw a bidder pay more for a used photographic ball head
than a brand new one cost.

Yup. eBay is wonderful for sellers, as it gives you access to the
least-common-denominator, when it comes to buyer intelligence. Even one
dumb buyer can push your sell price up to the reasonable maximum market
value, and with two you can go well past that mark. A million other smart
buyers looking at your product are helpless to prevent that from happening.

And as anyone who participates on Usenet knows, finding two dumb people just
isn't that hard.

It's finding two dumb people that want what you're selling that's hard.

Pete,
If you really thought that was true, you'd be rich off of eBay and
flying (rather than typing USNET posts). There are some dumb people out
there but I certainly wouldn't say you can make a butt load of money
selling crap on eBay. If that were true, we'd all be retired.

Nice spam to your eBay site.
