MidnightIce4498

Parked for the night at KDEN after an arrival from KPHX; taking off tomorrow for KDAL, with CYWG and CYYZ after that.

Over the North Atlantic en route to Dubai…in the past 72 hours its been in Canada, Chile, Argentina, and back to Canada. Cant make money with a plane sitting on the ground! :lol:

As has been mentioned, the 777 is a different bird from the 737, but both are beautiful planes to fly and each have their own idiosyncrasies and challenges....The 777 requires you to think 'ahead' of the aircraft, sort of like driving a car...its always good to think beyond the immediate action of driving. The 737 has the ability to have more descent control and is great for shorter hops but comes up shorter in terms of "technologies" (i.e. the electronic checklists in the B777 and the extra steps required to start an engine in a 737 than the 777). Both planes have been a joy to fly in terms of FPS (and I have a $20 graphics card in my big box computer with only minimal FPS drops) and it really just comes down to what do you want to do? Several short hops and maybe a long hop or two or consistently longer flights in the 777. Cant go wrong with either one!

I'll bite and play the middle man here: 1981....the year Rush's "Moving Pictures" was released. Not really that old but running a business and chasing after two little boys makes me feel like I'm getting there, albeit slooooowly.....

Is it me or does it seem like the level of troll-dom has increased ten-fold from when the NGX was coming out? Regardless, take your time with the plane....from a purely selfish standpoint, the delay allows me to finish pulling down the tiles in the bathroom without rushing about like a madman and incurring the wife's wrath.....

Well, as one gets older "sudden releases in the middle of the night" take on a whole new meaning, although I'm sure many people will have the same reaction when the plane is released....

......take it from a guy who has an 11 month old, you learn to make good use of VNAV, LNAV, burp rags and bottles rather quickly. Its when the baby has an unscheduled "fuel dump" that you have problems. Congrats on the great news!

....it depends. Are those planes FSX Boobies compatible? :(

B19000? Must be an update I missed! :( Ian S. Crawford
