Well after thinking about it for a while I've decided to retire this username. There are too many other users that have taken away the freedom to speak your mind and thats part of the reason for a forum. So for those of you that think I'm a Evil Anti American... BYE !! (I'm not as a matter of fact, ...

These are for you.....

Jump to postThey are in Hong Kong on the March 29th / 30th. AN-124 would be better then a boring Polar or UPS.
According to the Hong Kong airport website on March 2nd at 20:15 CX2022 will arrive from Avalon (Australia). This should be B-HVY the only plane that Cathay still has in storage. Can't wait to see it back in service, not much chance to see a non -400 of <acronym title="Cathay Pacific (China-Hong Kon...
Jump to postAny of you in Europe got any ideas ??.
One question, would you dump fuel at low level ?. Also if its dumping fuel it must be a plane thats was **planning** a long flight.
Cathay air looking at the 773ER for Europe I think, not for the USA.
Jump to postHave a read of this from the BBC:

Jump to postLEFT = c/n 1989 Finnair A321 OH-LXI
RIGHT = c/n 536 Emirates A332
Soon to be A319's !!
c/n 1955 A319-131 Privatair
There are no cheap fares from HKG, cheapest I know is (was) Cebu Pacific to Manila which was about HK$ 999 (thats US$ 128)
Jump to postIf you do any spotting please let me know.
As for the A346 its now on the LAX route with some asian flights, soon that chages to Sydney ans asian flights. Not heard of them going to the UK.
Now I think about it your correct. When those US soldiers start dropping in Iraq I'll be saying "who cares", I mean what did you expect when you joined the military ?? So what about the special forces in the US ?. You know the guys that do the stuff we never hear about ??. Are they terrorists ??<br>...
Jump to postWhatss teh porlbme, ew lal knwo its QANTAS.
We all know that CX are getting A300-600F's for the DHL/Air Hong Kong deal but was it ever CONFIRMED. When I say confirmed I mean as in Airbus or Cathay putting it on their site.
Thanks.
Sorry to burst your bubble L-188 but just because there is a N mentioned it does not mean its the reg !!
Thats the construction number and I would guess its for c/n 536 a Emirates A330-200.
The moderators should be advised of this and his wording changed
L1011 and the A340-600.
As for Frank's 747SP pics....... standing on a hill
It makes me sick how you Americans (Not <acronym title="Albenga (Villanova d'Albenga) (- Clemente Panero) (ALL / LIMG), Italy">ALL</acronym>) look at any person from the middle East, or any other part of the world thats not behind the monkey man Bush as SCUM.

Jump to postVery strange how you guys never mentioned the Iranian air force 747's. When I heard 300 + thats the first thing that came to mind.
Now we know its russian....but what !!
Its never flown !!. Thats news to me........
Jump to postThats funny, I knew what this topic would be about before I opened it !!
Jump to postI would guess it was direct, don't think they did any site seeing or low passes along the way
Jump to postThe 742 is still here and is now due to leave 48 hours late. Aircraft will go to Bangkok as <acronym title="South African Airways">SA</acronym> 4287.

Jump to postWhat a way for the 742 to go out of service to Hong Kong !!. The Saturday flight was still there when I laft the airport at mid afternoon on Sunday. When I looked on the airport system there was no departure yesterday or today !!
As for the arrival of the A346 is due in about 90 minutes.
I know this is about a USAF plane but I think more people here can answer the question. <br><center><font color="#EEEEEE" size="1" face="ARIAL, Helvetica, Geneva"><a href="/open.file/319855/L/" target="_blank">View Large</a> <a href="/open.file/319855/M/" target="_blank">View Medium<br><IMG SRC="/ph...
Jump to postSmoking sucks big time.
Its funny how grugs are illegal but Smoking is OK, even when it does kill you !!.
Captaingomers,
As they say if you don't like what you read don't !!.
So who can tell me what happened to the forum ??
What % of people in America have family going back 100 - 150 years or so ??
Jump to postThe Varig 743 only had stickers on one side and NEVER flew.
This LH looks TERRIBLE, the titles look way too high. I can't think of anything nice to say about it.
Nice pics, don't see the big deal though as they already have the A330 in service, just a little longer.
Jump to postThe hammer and sickle looked great. I happen to like their scheme, makes the AA, UA, AF, LH schemes look boring.
Jump to postGreat news, thats even more Airbus orders. Can't wait to see the A346 in their colours.
Jump to postIs it possible that a plane as long as the 773 could have only 20-25 rows before the wing ??
The 773 is only domestic (at this time) so I don't see a problem.
Have any of you seen the AMAZING video about the SAA flypast's. Once with the A300, once with the 747-300 Special colours and once with a 747-300 and two 744's !!
Jump to postHow about the different engines !!. Also note the 744ER has white painted engines, the others are grey.
Jump to postThanks HlywdCatft,
I just say it the way it is.

What a load of crap. Do they think one of the millions that are pissed with the USA are going to do anything from a public spot !!. No, go into a side street, or a park, a warehouse or anything. This is just stupidity, what are they trying to prove by making a airport a security zone ??. Its the peo...
