JEP, you're fast. I posted that just a couple minutes ago. The top one is, indeed, yours truly. I must have been doing something important like plotting or making a position report. 6 airplanes and 2 are in the same place at the same time.... The one Travis posted was not me. I'd like to take credit for getting the work done in those windy conditions, but alas, I can not. |

Another fun fact - When the 6 airplanes came off of scheduled service and went into the DHL "ACMI-like" (their words) service, company profit DOUBLED. Amazing.  | |

We went from scheduled service to ACMI, which is basically Fee for Departure flying. The company gets X amount of dollars for each flight and doesn't take a risk on the load. Sound like any other set ups out there?  Quote:
I had the opportunity to ride UAL business facing the wing from SFO to HKG on a 747-400, so it was a fairly heavy chevy. It amazed me the different directions and how the wing moved. And it was smooth out. | ||
