There is a limit of just over 100kb for an attachment to be posted. In the likely event that the image is too large, it won’t be accepted. But with all the copyright moaning that Airliners.net do, it’s best like Andrew says, just to post us a link. 😉

lol 😀 😀

I experience this nearly all the time, but it’s no fault of my ISP or the forum. By pressing F5 (refresh) once it comes up, the message is posted.

And for some peculiar reason, my laptop cannot upload images to a post. Works fine on my other computer though. :rolleyes:

63,362,097 passengers passed through Heathrow in 2002, an increase of 4.27% on the previous year. 90 airlines serve the airport with 127 destinations, the most popular being New York, Paris, Amsterdam and Dublin.

Look here for more facts:

There are 20-something flights a day to New York. And as for that 63 million figure – is that passengers who arrive and depart at the airport? For example, if I go on holiday from Heathrow and arrive back a few weeks later, does that count as 2 passengers?

It’s unlikely now, since it is 4:20pm, but if the temperature can get up to 37C (about 104F), it will officially be the hottest day since records began!

Oh and that’s the Autumn excuse for late trains – leaves on the line.

So if you want to go by train, go in Spring, you’re less likely to get delayed by something silly.

Certainly a shame it the rumours are true. SOFTLAD may be your best bet to confirm whether or not this is the case.

How could you say such a mean thing about the 767? :p

I think it is looking quite unlikely now. Few airlines actually operate the aircraft nowadays – JAL and Northwest Airlines being two of the largest carrers.

If I were you, I’d settle for the 767. Once inside, you’ll never know the difference and you could just pretend it’s a DC-10! 😀

My only experience (that I can remember) of a tri-jet was JMC’s DC-10s in August 2000. Extremely uncomfortable with cold service and some sort of leak in the cabin ceiling. Modern is definitely better, it’s no doubt like to be safer too.
