The airline I worked for had the sister ships of the Aloha 737 that popped, sometimes knowledge is not a good thing! We had a 737-100 that was the last one flying in the US, there were always small airleaks around the doors, the noise was a bit concerning, but not too much of a problem.

In its later days, it was a real hangar queen, lots of cancelled flights, we used to jokingly refer to it as 'Deathjet 708". After retirement in Dec. 1999, it was sent to Opa-Locka to be put to a better use: beer cans.

Wow. I start ground school for either the CRJ-200 or 737-800 on 10/20 (training still hasn't decided which one yet because the sim for the CRJ may or may not be ready). The 100 must have been a real pilot's airplane.
