...also known as the B779.
I regularly visit a private German website that is based near EDDF. The website owner writes about the end of my nickname.
But I like to write something else. According to en.wiki, my direct Boeing family successor will be a large thing:
length - 76,5 m
wingspan - 71,8 m
MTOW - 775,000 lb
Ok, there are heavies that are heavier than that. But the dimensions... Where is the advantage compared to an A388?
I know why I have not (yet) upgraded to the B748i. I think my dimensions are large enough:
length - 70,6 m
wingspan - 64,4 m
MTOW - 875,000 lb.
...small enough for most of the Polynesian airports. I know that since I was a guest on Kiwi Land, on board a NZ-B744 simulator.
The LH rules will be strict enough so that for the B779 only the biggest of the biggest airports will be cleared. There is a reason why I've never tried a MD-11 simulator.
Boston Logan is too small for that! Not less than 3,101 metres for a take off... And the B779?
I'll stay small and cute with my nickname, at least until 2020.
