I was hoping the launch customer would be domestic for no other reason than to mean I’d have a better chance of seeing the 7E7. Oh well, a small loss but it’s nice to see such a large first order for the new airplane.
I’m sure this is just the start for the 7E7 in terms of orders. Possibly the beginning of a trickle ?
What does a thread title in bold blue mean ? The search facility doesn’t appear to be finding any old threads I’ve entered ? :confused:
The thing I don’t get about retro fitted winglets is why didn’t someone come up with the idea years and years ago ?
Have the drag reducing benefits only recently been discovered ?
Great pics, are the Olympus engines going to be reinstated for displaying or left out as displays of their own ?
Loads! How many do you want? 😀
I’ll happily take the lot thanks, you could even post it on the commercial forum if you wanted ? 😉
Any more Concorde bits or civvy stuff ?
Go on then Sandy let’s see a mock up. I’m sure you’re looking forward to seeing them for real at EDI ? Over at GLA we’ll just have to be content with our daily CO 764 and it’s splendid raked wing tips. :p
Sounds like a good day out there lads. If I wasn’t so 99.9% anchored in the Commercial forum I may have read this thread by now and joined you for the day. Maybe next time ?
Right then…. back to the CF, got a GLA meet on June 3rd to sort out ! 😀

The sun was just coming up when I took them, so they look a little dark anyway. I’ll post better lit shots later.;)
Will do, hoping to get the Emirates arrival against blue sky this time.
