Las Vegas Sands High Roller 737-300 BBJ Safety Card

This is a passenger safety card from a Boeing Business Jet (BBJ) operated as N789LS for the Las Vegas Sands casino (The Palazzo and The Venetian) aviation department. This plane was a 737-300 for Delta but was refurbished into a private jet taking high rollers to Las Vegas, Singapore and Macau.

Safety Card Cover

It was parted out after the Sands sold their Vegas resorts and changed directions soon after the death of their founder. John Travolta bought the sister 737. The 747SP was damaged at a repair hanger and will likely not fly again.

Water Landing Directions

The cabin safety card has a cool overview of the floor plan. I own 9 sets of seats from the aircraft, a story for another time.

This is the passenger safety card for the US Air Force C-40 VIP transport aircraft. The front cover panel is custom to the Air Force C-40, a Boeing 737-700 variant. The other 5 panels looks like a basic 737-700 diagrams. The card does not give any indication of special floor plans or unique seating arrangements other than a suggestion of a stateroom and couch with table set up.

US Air Force C-37 Gulfstream G550 Safety Card

This is the passenger safety card for the US Air Force C-37 VIP transport aircraft. The passenger safety card appears to be basic Gulfstream G550 with the serial number added (S/N 5297). This card is specific to tail 11-0550 and should be similar to all versions in USAF use.

This is part of a slow rolling series spurred by some free time in early 2024 and a series of FOIA requests. Interestingly, this aircraft has 10550 on the tail in photos.

 Better than nothing. I appreciate the effort Singapore, most airlines didn't bother.

Ireland West Airport Christmas

I love the Knock Airport newsletter, so much so I sent my sister in law to it for an Irish holiday.
