Okay, here is the math problem that we talked about today. REMEMBER: the first person to turn the correct answer into Mrs. Ford from each class will get a prize next week!
A 737 uses approximately 2,400 lbs of fuel per engine (there are 2 engines per plane), per hour. If 1 gallon of jet fuel weighs 6.7 lbs, how many gallons of fuel would we need on a 3 1/2 hour flight?
I have been working in the aviation industry for over 10 years, but have been working for Southwest Airlines since January 2005. I am currently a First Officer based out of Houston, TX. I started this blog so that I may communicate with my Adopt-A-Pilot classroom while I am away flying the friendly skies. I will post pictures of my travels, answer all questions that the students ask and ask a few questions myself.

this question was a little challenging
where is the farthest you have traveled and where was it from?
Have you ever traveled to a different country with or without you being the pilot?
