That's 777-200LR is crazy, but can you imagine sitting on a plane 23-24 hours? you would think flying from Singapore to New York in the A340-500 would suck as if 18 hours is not long enough already.

Hey guys this just in PM from kchika:

According to kchika who is from Hong Kong, he said he got a loaner car last time when his car is in for service.

Do you mind sharing with us on how did you manage to get a loaner car here in Hong Kong while the rest of us can't. Do you drive a 760Li? Do you have a corperate account there and you like buy 10 cars from them every year? What is it? Let us know

Basically we can talk about anything here, I don't think Lomag would move our topic as long as we talk about the E60 from time to time.

So anything else that interest you, you can bring it up and yes the A380 should be a blast to see.

How the grill coming along there shield.

Have you not seen the news?

http://www.airlinesafety.com/editorials/JetBlueLAX.htm


That plane was suppose to land by Long Beach airport next to where I work... there were TONS of ambulances and fire trucks there that day... they blocked off the all the streets leading into our parking lot as it faces the back side of the runway and they opened the back gate into the runway and everyone was waiting for that palne to land... they then cahnged it to LAX since it had a longer runway and more run off area.

A380? all it is is big.. its like the Hummer H2 and thats it...
