At American Airlines, we have a few 727's that have 'em. We call 'em the St. Thomas airplanes as these are the only 72's we used to be able to get into the short runway at STT. I think that we have maybe 5 or 6 airplanes so modified. It would probably be complicated and unnecessary on our Lancairs. Bill harrelson@erols.com N5ZQ
