    RE: A B747-500?

    Well Paul, you seem to make it look a little to easy. Its not easy to make an aircraft as u must be knowing it. Just comin to this, think why didnt Airbus build a plane like the 747 when it was launched, thats becasue Boeing launched it first and they will have a monopaly on it. Meanwhile Airbus worked out the A380 and of cource its there brainchild so airlines are gonna opt for it. Know Boeing needs to make some new thing. The Sonic Cruiser i think is great. Small and FAST, thats the word to concentrate on. If we can reach our destinations early we wont be needing the luxuries of the A380. Ofcource if the luxuries of the A380 can be combined with a sonic crusier nothin like it;-).

    RE: Shortest and longest flights

    I was on board the flight Johanesburg-NY and it almost kills you. I am never travelling that route again. Bloody they show all stupid movies, SA songs…cant understand a thing. Lousy food, and a hell cramped 747. Hell is better than this flight.

    RE: Shortest and longest flights

    Well the worlds shortest flight is of 5 mins and 45 seconds Between Stuart Island and Florida Is. in the Pacific. Longest flight Johanesburg-NY…15 hrs 48 mins. SAA uses a B747-400 long reach. And I flew Singapore-Melbourne, it took 8 hrs 23 mins, great flight.

    RE: your favorite airplane

    Well Matheww, Airbus 340 cockpit is nice except its all blue in colour. I HATE THAT. B777 cockpit is the state of the art cockpit, ofcource ur right, i think the pilot has least to do. I like the cockpit of the A320 alot. Its real nice.

    RE: Just wondering

    V1 is this Dejavu or somethin. I took my gf to see the Concorde when it came first time in India, and she was pointin to another aircraft and sayin ” Whats so special about this plane, theres like it another one, there”. Pitty she was pointing towards a B757 of Royal Nepal. Inside i was thinkin how can u confuse a 757 with a Concorde.

    RE: PIA FLEET RENEWAL

    PIA had full plans to lease 3 A330s. But Airbus refused to accept there offer. KNow PIA has for long haul as VI mentioned 743, which you can say is there work horse. PIA operates these 3 743s to London, Copenhagen, NY, Bangkok-Tokyo and a few more which i cant remember. The A310 of theres on the Amsterdam sector is a ex-SIA aircraft.

    RE: Gulf Air’s special paint

    Totally agreed. Those look awsome. Airliner WOrld did an article also called Islamic Art, they just look terrefic. I dunno, i am quite gettin used to the BA tails know. But still quite dislike them.
