I do agree that it is becoming a little bit booring now. We have allready gotten the answer. Its the same thing. You donīt have to be more skilled or have bigger muscles or be older in order to fly the 747 or 777. They have pretty much the same instruments as the 737 and the same controll stick. It is just that normally older persons with more experience work on the larger airplanes. That is how it works in the airline industry. But some times younger people get the oppurtunitie to fly bigger planes. What is the big fanatisism about this matter? Sure if I could fly the 747 as a 23 year old I would be bery happy, but I am happy to become a pilot and fly whatever plane there is. The big planes may come whith time.

So please lets close this thread now!!
