RE: Well here it is…. looking long and lovely
It is quite long. How does it compare to a 777-300 in length?

RE: Well here it is…. looking long and lovely
Just sheer beauty. What more can I say.

RE: Well here it is…. looking long and lovely
The body is so long, it would bennefit from having either the name spaced out a bit more, or some logo next to the name to make it look a bit more dynamic. Nice shot though.

Dazza – until you pointed that out I hadn’t noticed the extra 2 wheels compared to the 200/300 series. They only have a twin wheel body gear.

Thanks for the answer Wysiwyg, I’d actually forgotten to check if anyone replied!:-)

RE: Well here it is…. looking long and lovely
Dazza – it’s for the same reason the 757 and 767 bogeys tilt in opposite directions – purely because of the space they have to fit into in the fuselage when retracted.

RE: Well here it is…. looking long and lovely
Yup it does look very nice especially with the SA logo, but I have to agree it is not as good looking as I expected it to be.

RE: Well here it is…. looking long and lovely
Not looking as good as i thought…but still not bad!
By: Dazza - 31st January 2003 at 23:15
RE: Well here it is…. looking long and lovely
Nice pic. Does anyone know why the centre bogey sits the opposite way to the other two?
Regards, Dazza.
