i saw the red arrows take off from ncl on the monday after they did the flypast over the great north run, bloody posers walked out and timed it so they all got in an aircraft at the same time.. and i never realised they took off 3/3/4 at a time

There had to be a Sleazyjet in the pics about 4/5 of the TO/Landings are Sleazyjet or Emirates.

Thanks for the explanation. So which is more popular on the 767, the PW or the GE?

Surely, by GE CF6 you mean PW PW4000? :diablo:

You got me:D I was going on the assumption that the majorty of 767’s used the CF6. I thought the PW4000 was more popular on the 757’s besides the RB211. Now don’t tell me it’s the same engine:eek: Somebody set me straight pls:confused:

One lesson learnt – Austrian use the PW4000 on their 767-300’s

Nice selection, that Hawk certainly came in low 😛

I think its an Austrian 763?

Yep, it has the GE CF6 engines, a dead givaway. Also the wingtips have a different shape, flared more outboard on the 777.;)
