After becoming more or less familiar with the T7, I'm definitely gonna be doing an ACA flight from Toronto to London, that will be my first 'official' flight:-)

 

I'm going to take her for a flight or two up and down the UK to just test her out, how epic it is etc get all my settings set up! I think my First will be EGLL-OMDB, I'm eager to jump right into a ULH. A friend at Emirates set me up with the OMDB-KLAX Flight Plan so that will probably be one of my first too. Once the 77W comes out I really want to do BAW15/16 Heathrow - Sydney via Singapore return Yeah.. I'm excited!!

What about Seattle? Emirates now flies to Seattle from Dubai.

 

As overall distance Seattle is a shorter route (approx 13-14 hours). Operated by 777-300ER. Same type flies Dubai - New York, Dubai - Melbourne, Dubai - Brisbane, Dubai - Tokyo, etc. non stop. Before those routes were operated by A340-500. The A-bus was the fanciest plane. Those times are long gone. Now the 340-500 flies shorter flights like Dubai - Seychelles, Dubai - Mauritius.

I read Air India will lease out 5 of its 8 LRs, after the 787 is introduced. Anyone know if there are any takers yet?

Operated by 777-300ER.

 

They swapped Dubai-Seattle to a 77L. The 77W is on Dubai-Houston now.

My first flight'll be ACA033 (CYYZ-CYVR-YSSY) :D And then I'll be doing some Virgin Australia flights! :)

I'm not one to fly a non operating route or flying say the 77L with an Airline that doesn't have one but I'll definitely be doing a lot of 77W routes in the 77L with Emirates :) All I need now is an FSX Dubai addon.. Makes me wonder how far behind the 77W will be! She'll definitely get a lot of my attention ha!

Saudi Arabian Airlines

FSX Dubai addon... something that is sorely missing!

Emirates Seattle - Dubai Just to be different.

Do the Emirates 77Ls have the aux fuel tanks?

 

Saudi Arabian Airlines

 

Don't operate the -200LR.

 

I've penciled in my first official 77L flight.

YYZ-LHR.

 

Something short and sweet before I really go ultra long haul.

Same here, gonna be doing Air Canada YYZ-LHR first, possibly followed by Air Austral RUN-CDG.

Delta fly the 777 from ATL to LAX.

 

Also don't forget American Airlines.

Do the Emirates 77Ls have the aux fuel tanks?

 

I don't think any airline has opted for the "ultra long-haul" tanks since cargo is more profitable. But I see the -LR slowly replacing -200ER because the former can carry more weight.

I would imagine PMDG having the -300ER very soon after the base -LR given the virtually identical specs, except for the obvious fuselage length and performance.

Funny... Singapore Airlines still fly Airbus for their longest flights... i.e. Singapore to Newark. I wonder why don't they purchase B777 LR's to do that knowing that they phased out all other Airbus 340's... I'd like to try that flight on the 777 LR.
