His personal island!

Toneballs52@reddit

We used a scaffolding company called Twin Towers, in their defence it was owned by twins.

[-]

Mysterious_Silver_27@reddit

Shouldn’t that be Twin’s Towers?

[-]

sirmilkalot@reddit

Found this one on the fridge 😬

[-]

Mysterious_Silver_27@reddit

Now you need to put a white 747 magnet on that fridge slightly below the blue one

[-]

_A_Friendly_Caesar_@reddit

Oh god, next thing you know, someone's gonna post another one in PanAm white

[-]

Dangerous-Honey7422@reddit

Oh dear it exists in blue

[-]

ThirdSunRising@reddit

Another SP! But in KLM blue so yeah it’s spooky

[-]

Mysterious_Silver_27@reddit

I hope this has a buy one get one free sort of deal 🤣

[-]

kayl_breinhar@reddit

The AvGeek in me is annoyed that this is clearly a 747 SP, which wasn't one of the planes involved in the accident. It was a -121 and a -206B.

[-]

Enough-Astronomer-65@reddit

only 747 SP i know that definitely had some red was N4522V

[-]

joesnopes@reddit

VH-EAA and EAB spent most of their lives with a red tail.

Ouch. At least that plane survived

I actually felt my ponytail move my whole scalp back a notch.

rileyjonesy1984@reddit

Exact same thought

[-]

Udjebfk@reddit

At least it's not KLM

[-]

GhostStationBusker@reddit

or Pan Am

[-]

REMcycleLEZAR@reddit

And neither plane was red.

[-]

Informal_Ad_9610@reddit

Electroboy101@reddit

I presume they made this before the incident.

[-]

mr638@reddit (OP)

I bought it like 30m ago at a supermarket lmao

[-]

Schwalbe262Guy@reddit

Cursed… look up the Tenerife disaster. Everyone has been reminded of it…

[-]

mr638@reddit (OP)

I’m from here

[-]

ZeBridgeIsOut5@reddit

Yeah I'm sure you are but you may be too young (or not an actual aviator or something) ....to realize this is not simply a souvenir of the island, it's more of a souvenir of a major disaster.

[-]

mr638@reddit (OP)

That’s why it’s on r/aviation

[-]

fedeger@reddit

I think that is the reason they posted on r/aviation

[-]

“We’re going”

[-]

Kardinal@reddit

Tenerife. 747.

Most may miss it, but among Avgeeks and Aviation buffs, that's going to evolve a very very specific memory.

[-]

gtponydriver@reddit

Yes, it reminds me of every CRM class I’ve taken since the beginning of my career. It is definitely a staple video of CRM.

[-]

robkillian@reddit

Salesforce sure has some weird trainings

[-]

sorrymizzjackson@reddit

I’m going to use it next week. It really gets the point across. I love using Sioux City as a positive example to not depress everyone too much though.

[-]

CerealATA@reddit

I may not be an avgeek, but Tenerife and 747 have been living rent-free inside my head ever since I read a magazine article about it many years ago.

[-]

Unable_Ad8675@reddit

Evoke* but yeah

[-]

Kardinal@reddit

Thank you for the correction. A victim of autocorrect and my negligent editing.

[-]

JeTeChIsAl@reddit

😟

[-]

_A_Friendly_Caesar_@reddit

Tenerife North or Tenerife South?

[-]

HorizonSniper@reddit

Oh, that's... Hehe. That's grim.

[-]

zibudotai@reddit

Guess what I think of 747 and Tenerife. This is probably not the best refrigerator magnet.

[-]

JuanTamadKa@reddit

Are these on souvenir shops before 1977?

[-]

TheReallyAngryOne@reddit

The OP got it a half hour before posting...

[-]

Square_Grand_3616@reddit

I’d love to have this. I would pin them next to my two Italian Air Force Aermacchi jets.

[-]

What happened to the other one?

Asking the right questions

[-]

umbrella_crab@reddit

Yeesh

[-]

csbsju_guyyy@reddit

Keep it away from fog and other toy 747s!

[-]

pollococo90@reddit

Also from fake terroristic threats!

[-]

BillWilberforce@reddit

Or pilots and ATC using non-standard terminology.

[-]

Chip3165@reddit

Toy 747- “We are at takeoff”

[-]

LaddieNowAddie@reddit

We are like Springfield and Shelbyville they saved us from the curse of the lemon tree

[-]

Enough-Astronomer-65@reddit

I wonder how

[-]

K_the_Rev@reddit

Ouch. Top of the table for terrible island/aircraft combos for a souvenir.

What's next? A Martha's Vineyard/Piper Saratoga keyring maybe?

A Madeira/727 snowglobe?

[-]

Joehansson@reddit

I’d like the Faro DC-10 please

[-]

IAmTheHype427@reddit

Hmm, which one would work for my geography?

looks out on NYC skyline

Y’know, on second thought…

[-]

Enough-Astronomer-65@reddit

the guy that lives in Lockerbie is sweating right now

[-]

CerealATA@reddit

It could've been worse.

It could've been MH370 or MH17.

[-]

Tommy84@reddit

I guess the next one in the set says ‘Lockerbie’?

[-]

No_Advertising_9355@reddit

Or JAL 123.

[-]

TigerIll6480@reddit

Or TWA 800.

[-]

Enough-Astronomer-65@reddit

or China airlines 006 or China airlines 611, or Korean airlines 007

[-]

PleasantSir9581@reddit

how cursed

xolinlevh@reddit

Going to Tenerife for the first time later this year…..reading the story about this gives me nightmares

[-]

mr638@reddit (OP)

Don’t worry you ll fly to the southern one. That’s the one used for international flights. Los Rodeos airport has the majority of its operations from mainland Spain.

[-]

xolinlevh@reddit

I believe we’re going into the northern one (TFN), connecting in through Madrid

[-]

mr638@reddit (OP)

Yeah, you ll land at the same place then

[-]

IShouldGetBackToWork@reddit

They should do matching souvenir planes to sell at every airport that's had a major aviation disaster. That'll get the gift shops going.

[-]

grumpyfan@reddit

Oh, the feels! Yikes!

Spiritual-One-683@reddit

Hmmmm…

Dear god

[-]

That-Advance-9619@reddit

16 millones de turistas llegan al archipiélago al año, a estas alturas el accidente no viene a la mente sino turismo la verdad.

De hecho hay un avión de Binter llamado Tenerife creo que está en la ruta con la península.

Surprised they made the model of a 747SP specifically.

[-]

They could have picked ANY other plane, but instead went with a 747

“Tenerife” you say…

[-]

Babytrix@reddit

My sis in law was just there last month and brought me back a magnet like this as a souvenir because she knows I like planes! Mine is a white body with blue and red. I was shocked they sold these just because it's so grim if you know...

[-]

WolfSquare9694@reddit

Dayum that's like twin towers or some sort of that shit...

[-]

Airwolfhelicopter@reddit

Putting it on a 747 is… yeesh.

[-]

DiligentCredit9222@reddit

Nothing that unusual and not really related to the '77 accident. Boeing 747's were not that unusual in the Past at Tenerife North/Los Rodeos airport during the busy holiday season.
