    What would be groundbreaking is London to Sydney/Brisbane direct flights..... I believe Qantas are actually thinking about doing it
  2. TheFiend
    Exactly...... Not exactly groundbreaking, it's only just a wee bit longer than the longest A380 flight from DXB to AKL and with a lot fewer passengers....

    Qanats can't have been that confident... They had a standby aircraft rostered just in case

    That Etihad A330 doesn't look as good as the A340-600 they did in Abu Dhabi Grand Prix livery..... Sadly that A340 has been retired....

    You've obviously never experienced an Emirates 2-class 77W with 427 seats crammed into it..... Not a great experience in economy!!! I've traveled a lot on 777's and A380's.... And nowadays I try to avoid traveling on a 777 if I can help it... too much like a sardine can and too noisy..... More and more 777 operators are opting for 10 abreast as they try to maximize the number of seats they can fit in....

    If it looks like spam, tastes like spam..... it is spam!!! Wonder if the OP will reappear...... He was nosying round a few topics last night....... but not the ones you would associate with a monger
  7. TheFiend
    First post by a new poster. This could be considered as being spam.... If the OP doesn't respond on this topic as to why it was posted then it will be removed.....

    Only once in many years of flying from Manchester, with various airlines, have I had a plane stop at a remote stand. That one time was with Qatar when the flight arrived early and there was still an aircraft on the gate they normally use. Also one time at BKK boarded an Qatar A380 parked remotely....

    Ever flown on a Qatar 787 Nightmareliner??? Now they have the most appalling legroom..... the A330's have better legroom and wider seat.

    Using 27 year old British built Diesel Multiple Units.....

    Yes, no need for most, but as a mod it was quite handy to check out the tweeks to the mod tools....

    Has anyone else had a look on the test forum..... I've had a little nosey and it's looking good!!!! You're doing a grand job Frosty!!!!
  13. TheFiend
    Yep, same with me...The company I work for tried to push me towards software at one point, but I liked working on hardware systems and fault finding.... @Frosty..... thanks for all the hard work your putting in.... I've still got my Commodore 64 and Amiga 500 stored away in my attic, could never, ever part with them!!!!

    I flew AMS-BKK on a KLM 747 and was very disappointed by the so called "Queen of the Skies" Have flown Air France and Etihad A340 previously and looking forward to my next A340 flight with Qatar...

    The top photo in that article shows 3-4-3 in World Traveller, and one lower down shows 2-4-2 in World Traveller Plus

    But it's not just RR that having problems with engines.... Both P&W and CFM are having problems with their new generation engines... and even GE have been having problems with the GEnx.
  17. TheFiend
    Yep the M60 has issues, but it's not as bad as the M25!!!
  18. TheFiend
    In my opinion Airbus are the better aircraft, quieter and more comfortable.... but sadly I have suffer Boeing. I always try and find flight options that offer flights on Airbus.... My next trip has 2 flights on Qatar's A340-600 but unfortunately on that same trip I have to suffer 2 flights on a Qatar Boeing Nightmareliner
  19. TheFiend
    The A380 feels less claustrophobic and quieter.... As for getting warmer upstairs on an A380....... when I have flown upstairs I haven't noticed a temperature difference compared to downstairs...

    KFC recently open a place in my home town and they screwed up badly, totally underestimating the demand. Everything is cooked to order which results in huge queues. I've never been and don't intend to.

    Butch didn't say that he flew internationally with them, just that he flew with them....
  22. TheFiend
    I've just checked for my dates in May/June comparing LHR-BKK and MAN-BKK returns with Oman ..... Price from LHR £323 Price from MAN £426!!! But would I travel down to LHR to save £103??? No chance!!!
  23. TheFiend
    Just a couple of suggestions, perhaps this would be more visible posted in the main forum.... and perhaps a larger font on the banner announcement at the top of the page....
