Just returned this morning from a week in Boston and Cape Cod with my son and his family. Congratulations on the new arrival.
Very fast crossing today from Logan Boston to Heathrow on a BA Boeing 777, approx 5Hrs 30Mins from wheels off ground to wheels on ground. I was surprised to learn that was not the fastest crossing another BA acft had made the same flight in 5Hrs! Excellent new inflight entertainment system with countless films, cartoons, audio tracks etc. available. Did not have time to open the book I had taken to read.
Does anyone know the fastest BA time taken and acft type for the flight Boston Logan/Heathrow and the time of year that flight was made?
good to hear you are back safe and sound, with a somewhat speedy return by the sound of it. Here, we are trying to manage life with very little sleep, which is a joy as always, as that have been through it well know! My daughter is indeed, thrilled, and is currently running circuits around his bouncer chair, occasionally clipping him, but he seems none the worse for it. I shall soon be retiring for some attempted |-).
With regard to fastest time Logan/Heathrow I had discounted Concorde so would interested to hear the fastest time and acft type, other than Concorde for that flight.
I did notice that one of the female American ground staff at Logan was wearing her ID badge on a printed Concorde ribbon round her neck. She had never flown or been aboard a Concorde acft. but seemed to have great admiration for that airliner. The ghost lives on.
Thanks a lot, Sean. The original plan was to release this weekend, but I have plenty of good excuses at the mo, so it was been postponed a bit longer. All that is left now is the FGA.101 VC and 2D panel, so we're pretty close. I'm going to release a prototype P.1042 version after the main release as well, as a sort of 'bonus' model.
Anyway, all for now, stay tuned and I hope all is well over in the Netherlands.
Steve
** UPDATE: All modelling and panel work finished, I am just doing the last repaints, then I will package everything up for release this weekend.
