But when the jet bridges were converted they were adaptable to all aircraft and not just the wide bodies. Most will now accept all aircraft from the wide bodies to 727, 737's , DC9's, Air Bus, 757 and 767 aircraft. If it were not for this fact airport ramps would be "nightmares."

True, after the new ones were added one by one the old ones were replaced. This was at a cost to the airlines partly and partly the port authority in some cases. Therefore taxpayers paid for the port portion and passengers paid for the airline portion, to what extent, I'm not sure.

Jetways was the appropriate name for those contraptions. things might have changed since I've been there.

Also runways definately needed to be modified around the world to accomodate the new french pig.
