I assume it will have a RAT system because the MD-11 has it too.
Not quite sure as to what the 737 has to do with the MD-11 and just cause the one has it why the other one should have one too, you may believe me it simply doesn't have one lol. :( The 'buses have em, the MD may have one, but the thirty-seven just dont. We have (true) manual reversion anyways, so who wants a RAT. Big%20Grin.gif

Quite spammy, but lol, so hey thanks...! LOL.gifsig.gif
So when I got told I was slightly too colour blind to be a pilot, does that mean "anyone can do it with motivation",, for sure i can get a ppl, but that is far too expensive life style for me until i get rich somehow. It is fine when you go to a school, becuase you get a loan, similar to higher education,, but not for ppl's
My apologies. The modivation was primarily meant for those who felt that overall, it was something they thought about but thought in a general sense was out of reach or more than what they were capable of. Nevertheless, there are color blind pilots. Even commercial ones. Also, my school was not part of any university at all; it was more a mom and pop business. Even for my PPL, I got a loan. Although yes, if you're doing it for fun, I wouldn't recommend the loan unless you have a surefire way of paying it back.

I totally understand where you are coming from. When it comes to a persons health, that can keep someone grounded and in most cases indefinately. However, to say wealth keeps people from obtaining the certs to become a pilot and ultimately flying for a major airline and possibly the 737 is bogus. Yes its extremely expensive to obtain the req. Certs and hrs but ts doable. I just completed my ifr this past month. It took over two yrs to get this far but i did it all on my own. Im in collwge working qt staples making close to min wage working 20 hrs. A week. What it comes down to is how bad someonw wants it. Because i see ppl on these forums willing to shell out hundreds of dollars on new hardware the day it comes out or software for fsx and those are some of the people who complain in other posts about not having enough money to fly. I bet if some of the people on these forums held off and didnt the hot new gfx card or stopped worrying about the sandy bridge cpus or stopped tryig to upgrade the computers just to fly the NGX and put that money in lessons....they could start flying. My instructor sold hotdogs outside a bar to save up money for his pitts s2b. So the whole "i dont have enough money to fly for real so ill spend the same amount flying in fsx" as an excuse doesnt make sense and doesnt really warrant a lot of respect. If one doesnt have enough money....get creative. I washed planes day in and day out for free flight time and the networking gained is immense. People will help out in many ways when they see someone willing to worktheir butts off for what they want.Needless to say...typing this from my phone was the biggest pain ever and it makes it look like i cant spell nor type and that i dont know what the meaning of grammar is.
I don't want to contribute to what has now become an argument, but I just read the last two pages and want to say a couple of things. You seem to have a lot of wisdom. What you say here, in a way, is beautiful. Albeit not everybody can become a pilot due to certain things like health, etc., but the points you bring up are true. I admire your determination and the way you go about looking at your situation. I can also relate to the part-time/minimum wage thing, as I did that for a good while before I got a better job and moved up from there. I know that sometimes with a circumstance like that you can feel like youre not going anywhere, and it can be depressing. It seems like you have a very positive outlook though, so keep it up! Just wanted to let you know what I thought. Hopefully what you say will inspire someone else to go out and try to get their certificate. See ya.
So you can establish my wealth on my signiture? I have a decent computer yes i do,, but if you are basing my wealth on that, i can assure you , you are very very mistaken
I don't want to get involved in this argument, but I would like to say that it is not really fair for anyone to judge you financial situation or otherwise when they can't possibly know your personal details and circumstances. If one doesn't have all the facts, which they don't, then they shouldn't say what you can or could do.

I agree sir, but i am happy to let this silly argument drown now, i think both sides of the argument have been pointed out, and it doesnt need to continueall the best

can you also do double-annular combuster? see here for reference: http://en.wikipedia....#CFM56-7_series
Did you actually read about what this is at CFM's site? It's purely an emissions reduction system that reduces the amount of NOx (oxides of nitrogen) in the engine's exhaust. There's no instrumentation difference and no visual difference on the engine - NOx is a colorless gas as well. There's nothing to "do" here...

I think is useless, but I´ll say it anyway: the staff said hundreds of times that they´re following Boeing´s actual blueprints of the NG, and that they´re pursuing maximum quality (as long as FSX permit). So please, save your questioning about appearance of a specific part, or the presence of a system. I think that after all these teases and views, we all know that the product will be the best as possible. That´s my 2 cents. happy.gif
