Silly? It's actually a way of alerting ATC that Code F taxiway requirements need to be followed. Not hard to understand is it? Or maybe it is

And if delivery can bunch up a bunch of 'supers' together it makes a big difference to flow-rate... They like to know!

Maybe the PM SHOULD intervene more; judging by the number of ASRs I see on a weekly basis regarding HARD landings on the 777

Well. IMHO Air France should be blacklisted from EU skies... Three hull losses since 2000. Maybe the aviaiting rather than the type is the problem here heh?
