    Well excuuuuuse me, Mr “I fly around the world every year”, but 6 to 7 hours is long haul 😉

    I was told a couple of years ago that my flight to JFK with United from LHR was classed as “medium haul”. Whether or not there is such a thing, I don’t know, but lets face it, 6 hours isn’t particularly long, is it?

    Right, I followed the above instructions.

    Last night, I flew a MyTravel DC-10-10 from Manchester to Gatwick, just a quick hope to get used to the software. I used the FS2002 Air Traffic Control all the way down to London. Air Traffic Control gave me no instructions to change my altitude at all (are they meant to?) and I ended up right above Gatwick, before the autopilot automatically adjusted my heading back to 360 degrees.

    From here, I flew manually into Gatwick and runway 8R. Heading was fine and I was descending at about 800 to 900 feet per minute. Unfortunately, the forward gear collapsed on touchdown. Oops? 😡

    It is indeed a D-328. 🙂

    To ask you the airline would be impossible, there are no clues whatsoever. Just to let you know, it’s a Scot Airways aircraft.

    I don’t know how their short haul 767s are different from their long haul 767s, that’s if they are different at all.

    I flew for 2 hours and 30 minutes on G-BZHC at the start of the month and loved it. They are very comfortable, spacious and economy is in a 2-3-2 seating configuration.

    The 767s don’t have PTVs, but there are a number of 14″ televisions around the aircraft cabin.

    New York from Manchester is barely long haul anyway.

    Myself and A330Crazy are also coming to Dublin on 16 December. We’ve just booked our Aer Lingus flights from Heathrow.

    Re the picture ‘Nice variety’ – what is the 767 (is that’s what it is)?

    There doesn’t appear to be a 767 in that batch. 🙂

    Back to my question… Anwhere anywhere near LGW good for spotting? And anyone up for a meet on either the 22nd or 29th of January? (Is a Saturday – Just £38.00 return!)

    Saturdays are nasty for me.

    I’m certainly up for a meet in Manchester in the near future though.
