Hi,

 

The forum allows polls up to 25 questions with 20 choices per question. Answers can be single choice or multi choices.

 

I plan to run the following poll. It would be public that is everybody can see everybody's vote.

 

The objective is to draw an image of the 777 community in terms of profile and practice. In other words: "Who are we?" and "How do we fly?"

 

But first I am posting it here as a project to :

- See if it is allowed

- Get some inputs, help and advices to get it right when it is launched
