Titan and Flyer Spotter. thanks for the info. If i read right the new 777-300ER's are GE powered. Is there a reason for CX "loyalty" to RR? From what ive seen in "beyond lion rock" it was to do with whether to pick the British RR powered L1011 or the US powered (wasnt sure if it was GE or P&W) DC-10's back in the 70's. And they picked the RR since back then the British gov't was throwing a temper tantrum about it. Is this right? Just need to know a good answer before the Stage 1 interview!

Again, any insight is highly useful!
