Listen to a DC-9 or a 727 (w/ hushkits no less) take off. Now that’s loud!

Similar specs, then, I’m assuming? Twin engine as well?

What’s the deal with the A350?

QF is probably one of the most dilligent when it comes to keeping their planes clean. There are almost always 2 birds in the 2 bays they have for washing, and they do so all by hand. I believe they said it takes about 7 hours to completely wash a 747 by hand. Of course, once I post this, someone is going to find a pic of a filthy QF 744. 😉

Welcome back George, we were wondering how long your world cup celebrations were going to take you away from here for ? 😀

I’ve been hung over the entire time. :diablo:

Wow! What airline is this so I can start flying them immediately!

Sorry Greekdude– I didn’t notice the background for some reason….. 😉

LOL, INDEED!!! 😎

I love the colour scheme though, it’s a dramatic improvement. The only thing I don’t like is the gold/purple Thai logo on the fuselage, it doesn’t seem to fit in too nicely with the rest of the colour scheme, but that can’t be helped.

You took the words out of my mouth. Perhaps if some purple was added to the relatively plain white cowlings, then everything would come full circle. Still looks very nice.
