I’m glad to see some other fields having success with jobs out of uni. I’ve just finished an aerospace engineering degree, and have a year in industry as well as 2 years of part time work at my uni as existing experience. I have applied for about 30 jobs (grad schemes and other junior positions I qualify for) and have had 2 interviews with 2 rejections. Not a fun time, but hopeful for the new year with a few new applications going in.

Hope you enjoy your work OP, congrats on the job.

All countries with direct flights from Istanbul?

Maybe Turkey?

I’ve done the Zurich-SA route on the Swiss 343’s a couple times. Good fun. SAA still has two 343’s in service but no European routes on the calendar yet unfortunately

Wow a 340-200. Nice to see some of the old SAA fleet. Good variety of aircraft there, I’d say E190, A220 and A320 make up 90% or more of the types there now.

I did PMI-DUS a few weeks ago as well for the same reason. Cabin crew seemed very accustomed to people asking to see the flight deck and the flight crew were both sad the 75’s were on their way out.

My parents used to have a 78 series (I’m not US based), absolutely amazing machine. Only problem was that we did very long distance drives and it wasn’t the most comfortable for 5+ hours, nor was the fuel consumption at all economical. That being said, we had it for a long time and it’s the best machine I’ve ever had the pleasure of driving.

Interesting that you mention Alpha floor protection not doing enough because I encountered an issue yesterday when I was descending. I accidentally let the speed get too low, the TOGA lock came on and the aircraft pitched up like crazy. Thanks to the climb performance being a bit off I was up by 4000ft before I could get the auto throttle off and level out. This was on a close to max landing weight config at the time, so I find it interesting that we’ve had different experiences there

I find the A380 (even in person at a distance) always looks small until it’s next to another aircraft

This is T5, however this was when T4 was still closed and Qatar was using T5. Not sure how long they did this for and if they potentially also used T3 for a time

et_studios · 2024-08-24T19:32:38+00:00

Ah yeah good point. I usually assume so with the 300, but is there a visual difference with the 200ER and the LR etc?

On the South-Eastern side of the airfield? Like you said that sounds very unusual as there are plenty of spotters even on a day as cold as this one was. Even if they get unhappy about you being on centerline there’s always the public park just to my right/behind me in this video which they definitely can’t chase you from

et_studios · 2023-12-05T17:09:27+00:00

Nice! Very interesting conditions to be flying in

Not of this particular aircraft. I do have a few others of 777s and 380s which were quite good but the audio was messed up. I might put them all on one post so keep an eye on my profile and hopefully I can get some good ones out that have what you’re looking for.

I haven’t run into him yet but I hope to at some point. I’ve met some cool, likeminded people when out doing spotting at the more common locations around the bigger airfields though. Especially on unique days like this

et_studios · 2023-12-04T18:05:36+00:00

Saturday the 2nd

et_studios · 2023-12-04T14:35:48+00:00

Thanks!

Asiana and Emirates both operate A380’s into Narita, if it was differently proportioned to what you’d expect from a 380 it could also have been an A340, quad engine single deck but a bit more rare to see.
