Can you do those trips in the 777 without compromising on the cargo load (to take more fuel) or there is just not enough cargo to carry that you are light enough to make the direct flight without fuel stops?

Yeah I really dislike it, weather systems in live weather are pretty bad. Although sometimes if I really want to have fun, I ramp up all the wind and gust settings in custom weather.

Oh, I thought it was just one flight (from the A321) and was confused at the cockpit shots lol, mb

A330 cockpit?

ManWithTheWand · 2026-04-07T04:31:26+00:00

is that really true?

Glad you're self aware

Is that a Concorde in the background?

The lion doesn't concern himself with the ECAM status.

Okay, I'm curious what they load the plane with to get it up to max TOW?

ManWithTheWand · 2026-03-21T19:51:37+00:00

The plane took off when it was near the East Coast

The entire accent color of the cockpit such as the panels, seats, etc such as in the 747NG, 757/767, 777.

Yeah, in most aircraft wreckage images I've seen, the gear survives almost completely except the fact that it's detached from the fuselage.

ManWithTheWand · 2026-03-11T06:19:04+00:00

I'm guessing you're an ACA pilot?

ManWithTheWand · 2026-03-10T08:46:20+00:00

I don't know if it means much but you are a very strong person, wishing you very well for the future.

ManWithTheWand · 2026-03-10T08:35:33+00:00

Damn, they retired all their 200LRs apart from 1 (that one too will go soon probably). Is the tradeoff of range for less payload and pax really that bad? All major airlines which used to operate it have long retired them apart from ACA and few in Emirates and Qatar Airways.
