Confusion about 777 Range
Hello everyone, I haven't been on the forum in a while, the 777 is looking awesome! I'm confused about the range of the 777 though... For instance, I live here in Houston and Emirates flys a 777-300ER from Houston to Dubai nonstop. The maximum range for a 777-300ER is 7,930 nmi. If you look on flightaware: http://flightaware.com/live/flight/UAE212 its a 8,300 nmi flight. So what am I missing here? Do some airlines mod their 777's with extra fuel space for extremely long range flights or something? It's clearly out of the 777's range. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_777

FSX Nav Update
I Haven't been on this forum in such a long time but I'm trying to find a link rsrandazzo posted a while back. It was a update to all the navagation data in FSX, it corrected some points that were off by miles. I can't find anything about this anywhere because I forget what it was called but it was a major FSX update and I wish I could remember what it was. If anybody here knows what I'm talking about help me out!

The NGX As Real As It Gets!
Hey Teofilo,Here's my specsi7-950 (not overclocked)Nvidia GTS 25012GB RAMI've spent over a year tweaking a million things in FSX to get it to run smooth. Personally I think it's the worst ever designed program with so many limitations but I still Love it. I hope flight will be better

The NGX As Real As It Gets!
That is correct, the window is actually a picture I took while I was on my last flight just for this purpose. I thought... Hmm it would be cool to use this in FSX. Everything was made using FSX and After Effects. Lens flare's, rack focus, dirt, grime etc... In my next vid I plan on motion tracking some cloud shadows... Should be fun

incredibly steep decents and space shuttle take offs
As far as passengers not noticing steep descents is not true. I fly 4 to 5 times a month on commercial airliners and I can tell when we are in a steep decent even if I'm watching a movie or listing to music, you have the feeling of leaning forward like your diving into the earth and this usually never happens sure enough on my last flight from KJFK to KIAH It happened and it was uncomfortable the other passengers seemed to notice as well. Sure enough I got on flight aware after the flight and saw that we hit a 3,900 fpm descent for a minute or so but I definitely noticed. If you look at flight on flight aware for 737's the most VS they usually get is 2,800. But certainly not 6500!
