fish The Long range story.

Well I guess the wing span really matters, but ... we can always go to other airports ... anyway we always go to big ones ..

I'm leaning in to telling him to go for a slightly smaller one and just stop in the middle and change the crew, it really sounds better than just keep going forever. A regular 75 will do the job just fine and it will make him look good too. (It's all about looking good)

I just talked to him about the 777 that is for sale and he said he knows the guys and they are asking too much for it ...
The 340 that I saw is great, and will take about 1 year to be done .. so .. time to talk to the boss again.

Lets see how this will end, he still is pushing for the BBJ knowing it will not make it ...

Appreciate all the coments and PM's ... I try to answer them all ... but still have to fly most of the time ... forgive me if I take longer than normal ..

Thanks to all of you for the info, now I have a more clear picture of this Long Haul stuff.

Keep it safe ..
