For those interested in a bit more detail of the Dreamliner cockpit (enlarged quite a bit and the focus varies towards the top of the mail panel).
The bottom section of this panel is for the test aircraft only. Comms and transponder have small numeric keypad for frequency input. The left and right mouse pads can be seen either side of the throttles. All the items on the left of the display are the fuses which are manipulated electronically (they no loger physically exist on the overhead panel).

Thanks to your tips guys I took the kids for a drive and saw N707JT on approach to MEL runway 34 Saturday. Driving back, saw him parked in front of the JHAS shed so went in for a closer look. Apologies for the obstructions esp fence - camera is weather resistant but lens is not so stayed in the car...
Loud enough just idling. Poor Julia missed out on riding around in one of these beauties |

After reading this story I feel really lucky to have sat in the left seat during ZA001's visit to Sydney.
Seems all to early to put her away. From Puget Sound .... Quote:

787
Yes agree it seems a bit early to retire the aircraft.
I think the prototype 747 was used as a test bed for many years. I also thought the prototype 737 was used by NASA once Boeing had finished with it. |

Hi all
The Qantas Australian Way magazine had an interesting article regarding the 787 and the delivery process of the 737-800's to Qantas. It may be of interest to some. The link is here http://travelinsider.qantas.com.au/7...:flash-random3 Dave |

Dreamliner ZA003 will be visiting Singapore on Feb 11-18 as part of the SE Asia Dreamtour, demonstrating the aircraft to Singapore Airlines. It will also be on display at the Singapore Airshow.
