Mil gracias por la INFO

Dear All :
I just got back fm my KBOS trip and all your hints were very helpful. I could brief my cockpit colleagues instead of being briefed by them !!!

I did get 27 (220/25G35) for landing and considering it was my 1st landing on the 340 I should admit it hasnīt been the smoothiest touchdown of my carrier.
I took my time to clear the rwy (10kt being my max reference GS) and the tower came out with not a soft tone informing us he had traffic on final. As we hadnīt cross 22L yet, I literally sat on the brakes thinking someone may be coming on 22 and it made the joke of the cabin crew for the rest of the trip.
On our way out we used 33L and appart from the icy taxiways, the SID and Oceanic Clearance procedures were pretty simple and very similar to those at JFK which I remembered from my 747 days.
We loved the city (children and missus came along ) and thanks God we brought our sky jackets cos it got pretty cold on New Years.
Once again, thanks a lot to everybody and WAS Dulles and San Juan are my next ones so go ahead with your comments.
Un abrazo, LUPA
