Just some pics from a quick walkaround for youur viewing pleasure.

 

Main gear bogey steering system (only the back 2 wheels pivot to reduce turning radius)

 

Nitrogen generation system exhaust outlet

 

MLG (-200LR and -300 series have the same gear. Red arrows point to attach fittings that would normally have an additional actuator on the -300)

 

Engine cowling opening system (Called PDOS. Fan cowls are too heavy to open by hand, so a hydraulically operated system is utilized. These are the up or down buttons)

 

Maintenace Access Terminal (see http://forum.avsim.n...lated-features/)

 

Main deck cargo compartment looking aft

 

Looking forward at protective wall

 

Sideview of protective wall to show thickness

 

Galley

 

Main cargo door control panel. Cameras mounted inside and outside of aircraft allow safe door control from just inside the L1 door. Panels also next to main deck door both inside and outside of aircraft. No camera displays though.

Reinforced cockpit curtain :)

Awesome pics, keep them coming! As for the prosecution sticker in the galley, cant read the fine print but you get prosecuted for burning coffee lol (*joke*)

It basically says dont take crap off the plane. Deters souvenir shoppers.

AA has the same policy towards catering items, they forbid you from taking a can of coke off even if it was offered by the FA.

Hi,

 

Nice pics!

So i'm not the only doing that hehe!!

Is it easy for you to take them, or do you have to be veeeery discrete, because pictures are forbidden (as in my case) ?

 

We cant have cameras here either. These are all found from the internet.

Nice pics! Thanks for that, makes the waiting easier :-)

Ever see an GE90 igniter?

 

The pen is here to show the size of the thing (pretty much larger than those on CF6-80 on CFM56)

 

This is how it looks like when beeing in an engine...

 

;)

Hi, Nice Pictures, to what does the igniter connects?

Thanks

Awesome pictures, guys. Those 777F for FedEx must be very clean, since only pilots are allowed inside.

 

 

Since there is a galley, do the pilots fix themselves or is there a flight attendant there with them? :LMAO:

just to add, each main landing gear of the 777 has an after axle steering system. Main gear aft axle steering automatically operates when the nose wheel steering angle exceeds 13 degrees to reduce tire scrubbing. Main gear aft axle steering is powered by the center hydraulic system.

I'm a huge gear head, technical and maintenance related type of guy so keep up with these awesome photos, love the ignitor picture!

Ooops, forgot to answer.

 

The igniter you see is mounted directly on the engine. On this igniter (2 per engine), you connect the ignition power plugs, big shielded (and sometimes vented) cables, running to the ignition high power boxes, generating the ignition spark (lightning should I say :D ).

 

Thoses igniters make the "TAC TAC TAC TAC" you can hear when a jet engine is starting.

 

Cheers :)

Pilots and load crew when loading. Jumpeaters (like when the guy from NBC did a documentary in a FE 777). MX when needed!

At EWR they get a cooler with more than enough food/drink in it and they just eat when they are ready. The FA must be hiding with the Segway cause I never see her! :)

Great pictures.
