    Fascinating.

    I see it has brakes like the 355CH though.

    Flown that visual approach plenty of times over the last 22 years.....One of the prettiest approaches in the world.....Much more fun to fly in the Jumbo than 777.......:)

    More steam driven than the 777....It has normal flight controls , manual thrust etc....The 777 is fly by wire and highly automated...The jumbo is also a lot heavier so you have to anticipate more...A bit like driving Greg's Bentley......:)

    Same reason a carby car is more fun to drive than an injected one, never mind an auto! Gotcha

    I thought it was “if it’s not a Boeing, I’m not going.”

    However, at the moment you may be correct.

    For once.

    Ours doesn’t arrive for another month.
    This one is privately owned here in Adelaide but Pilatus use it as a demonstrator and we use it to get some hours before ours gets here.
