B767: how to remember a/c dimensions

For all B767-300 pilots,

Here's a nice tip to remember the wingsspan and length. (not that it's difficult to remember anyway )

7 6 7:

wingspan = 7 x 7 = 49m (actual 47,57)
length = 7 x 7 + 6 = 55m (actual 54,94)

Happy flying

Doc.

For all B737-500 pilots;

- Height (to tip of the fin) is 11.1 metres - so think BAC1-11
- Length is 31.0 metres - so think A310
- Track is 5.2 metres - so think Junkers 52.
- Span is 28.9 metres, so think 30 minus 1.1.

If you're still interested at this point, more helpful information is available to you at;

You didn't read my post, did you? Did you by any chance look at the link? My post was what is known as a parody. It was, I freely admit, sarcastic, but in a well-intentioned and humourous way. It took me 2 minutes to write - I just pulled up the first aircraft I came across on Airliners.net - and I thought it might give someone a harmless laugh. Nope, not a chance.

Guys, Pprune has a real problem. How can a forum operate properly when no one ever bothers to read anything but their own posts?
