GrantSmith Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Yes the Sultan of Brunei loves his pimped out A340... No minibar though. True, but like the airline that bares the same livery, it's easily remidied with BYO duty free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David48 Posted July 6, 2013 Author Share Posted July 6, 2013 David 48: It has been covered well above, when you have big fuel loads, it effects everything. That is why on ultra long haul flights you get more leg room, less bums on the plane. That is minor in the big picture. I think it was SVB above who said it is a self perpetuating problem. That is an understatement. The heavier you are, the slower you go, initially the lower you may have to go, burning more fuel, that is even more fuel you need because you are burning more fuel due to extra fuel. <snip> ... Thanks for that reply. I checked out all the links ... ... the first one. Appreciated. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SinglePot Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 I think this is one of the prettiest fighters ever, although most think the Spitfire was the best out there this plane actually was when quipped with the RR (Spitfire) Merlin engine. fighter.jpg . fighter2.jpg P51D Mustang?
