Those are around 40-50 yrs old aren't they? My 1st jet passenger flight was on a SW airlines 737 like this. Never will forget that. Back then they ran the engines up 100% then released the brake. A little scary but exciting and fun.
They were leasing it from European Aircharter at the time. European Aircharter ceased operations last year and these were the last B737-200s flying in Europe. All of Jet2's 737s are -300s I beleive.
Jet2 Has 737-300s and 737-800s, as well as a few A321neos! The A330-200s, A321ceos and some of the 737-800s are leased. And finally, Jet2 has B757-200s that they plan to retire!
I know this went to Alicante a couple of times but did it ever do Valencia? Coz if I'd gone from MAN instead of LBA in 2007 I think I might've gone on it (I wouldn't of known the significance of it at the time like) Where was it going to on here?
I never even knew Jet2 had 200 series of the Boeing 737!
Yep, they leased this aircraft (G-CEAH) from European Air Charter back in 2007 for a few months. It was Jet2’s only 737-200.
Memory of my favourite airline

Ahh, a real 737, the original 'pocket rocket' with the awesome JT8D sound and short field take off capability.
fantastic idle sound
