December 8, 201312 yr When this beauty comes out, guess it'll be all that I fly (777 wise), the 200LR will be in the hanger for a while. Brendan Chen Learning to use and getting use to FSX!

December 8, 201312 yr My very first flight with the 77L I had a tail strike, gonna have to be extra careful with this old girl. Paul Dhanjal CYEG
December 8, 201312 yr My very first flight with the 77L I had a tale strike, gonna have to be extra careful with this old girl. Heard on the news YBBN shut down the main strip (where jets takeoff/land) after a major tailstrike couple days ago... Brendan Chen Learning to use and getting use to FSX!
December 9, 201312 yr Like most of you I will skip this one. Would have preferred to have the SP by now. Bring on the 744V2. I agree, SP is much more important. I dont get it, so many things are fixed already....the FBW part, which realy bugs me most, was said to be an easy one to fix....and still not even a word on how much longer it is gonna take. :-( But I will most likely get the upgrade.

December 9, 201312 yr I will have to get this! It will displace my 747 flights big time in the future. It will depend on how great the v2 is though. The reason I got the 737-700/600 was to use on shorter runways and have the 737 as a regional jet.
December 10, 201312 yr I'll probably skip this one, gives me nothing I already don't have with 77L Price gonna be a major factor for me.
December 10, 201312 yr Hi Rob - almost certain it does, but not sure of the specifics in so much as I think a tail strike can still occur in some conditions. No idea about the A340-600.... Cheers Yep, correct on both counts; the 773 has an active tail strike protection system for takeoff rotation. The 346 uses flight system law to protect against a strike, but pilots can overrule the protection and drag the tail. I don't know if the 773 will allow a pilot to do the same (ie: early rotation in an emergency scenario), maybe one of our 777 experts can elaborate. Both of course can't protect against a strike on landing. Dan Dominik "I thought you said your dog does not bite.... That's not my dog."
