A trip to Pima: A non-rev experience

Hello IFC:

On Monday, I decided to take the day off work and decided to take a trip down to Tucson, Arizona to go to the Pima Air and Space Muesum with a co-worker. 3/4 flight were empty (30-40 open seats) and we had no problem getting there and back to Dallas. Once in Dallas we only got on the flight back to Little Rock since two over some passengers didn’t make the flight. We sat in the very last row on the E175 aircraft which were seats 23F/D. Below are some shots from Pima…

It’s the second 777-200 ever built and it was donated by Cathay Pacific to be on display since Cathay Pacific Retired it

I visited this place in April of this year. It’s a very fascinating museum. I loved seeing the orbis eye hostpital and the Cathay 777.

Oof. I was told it was the second. Guess it was the first after looking st the link

Did you get some pics with the ANA 787? Probably my second favorite aircraft there after that first 777.

I believe its the first unless they have two…

The link says it’s the first 772 so idk. It’s either the first or second one
