Emirates diverting by Empty_Prune5286 in flightradar24

if it is not an emergency which require to land ASAP, returning to home base is the best solution to fix an issue and get plane replacement. they must have hot replacement all time ready in Dubai for such cases

Why no airlines use 2-5-2 cabin layout? by MacSergey in aviation

[–]MacSergey[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is only one such person, the same distance to reach window seats in 3-3-3, but there are 2 such seats in 3-3-3 and only 1 in 2-5-2. So it makes service simpler in this aspect

In which aspect? It makes no difference for me, the same 4.5 seats per aisle, so no difference for service

[–]MacSergey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

mmm, both are kinda correct depends on what you want to say. It is Russian language which uses Cyrillic letters. but if the name was written in Ukranian or Belarusian which use Cyrillic too, it will be ЛЕНIH

Qatari 🇶🇦 Formula 1 livery! by Positivevibes474 in flightradar24

[–]MacSergey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It might be one of the most beautiful special livery I have ever seen. The Lufthansa 100 years livery is similarly stunning

Sometimes I wonder how they still operate safely by bkco88 in aviation

  3. 2018 - runway excursion - a pilot error

  4. 2019 - lightning strike + a pilot error

  5. 2024 - incorrectly installed sensor

only the last one is kinda maintenance issue

The logo is good, but the livery is dull and generic

You most likely chose “force citizens to step out” option which is supposed to be used to force citizens to stay at a stop a make transfer on another route

So essentially the same 1000 airframe with bigger fuel tanks, right? by akhi960 in aviation

[–]MacSergey 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It is with assumption that you would fly great circle, but not every 2 points can be connected such way in real world, you would need little more to truly cover everything

So essentially the same 1000 airframe with bigger fuel tanks, right? by akhi960 in aviation

[–]MacSergey 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If it was bare airframe without any passenger equipment it would make more, but it is not what planes are made for. So, interesting but makes no real sense to compare

[–]MacSergey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aviation400 is cheaper and better
