May 22, 201313 yr So i was at the local airport a few weeks ago and I noticed something in the corner of the ramp. I snapped a few pics just for the fun of it. http://pinterest.com/jdguidry89/777-300/ Some one should give this poor airplane a pace in the sky!!

May 22, 201313 yr I sometimes lose my 77W - however, I upgraded to Boeing's supadupaluxturypakidge and got an alarm button on my key, so the aircraft can be heard from 50nm away B) - Luke Pabari
May 22, 201313 yr In response to your pictures, if that spout serves the same purpose as the ones I see underneath 737's, then that's the waste water drain pipe. I'm not sure exactly what's connected to it in the T7, but definitely the lavs, and possibly the galleys? It reads "HOT" as it's heated during the flight to prevent ice from forming on it, and thus blocking the pipe. Cool pictures though, wish I had access to airplanes like this one to take pictures of. KBFI's my local airport, but Boeing's rather skittish on letting people onto their ramps. Emilio Anselmo

May 23, 201313 yr What are the two red arrow buttons in this pic? http://media-cache-ec3.pinimg.com/550x/4c/78/17/4c78171ffbcae7719196ce2056d10419.jpg Steve Caffey
May 23, 201313 yr Author Those are to open the engine cowling for maintenance or viewing pleasure of those awesome GE engines!! This was a brand new airplane by the way. There is a paint facility at my home airport and they apparently got a contract from Boeing. One has been showing up every so often for a little paint job.

May 23, 201313 yr I know that airport I flew in there two weeks ago with the Coast Gaurd doing an ROL training flight for couple of pilots we watched that plane roll out of the paint shop at the aiport. then headed over to the tabasco factory for a bit. then Headed back home. Guy we talked to about the plane said was brand new from factory with maybe 10 hours on the airframe.
