    Wow, that's sexy. Not fair they don't fly their 777s here.
    Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
    All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
    I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9

    That bird is configured for domestic runs within Japan. Its amazing when you think that for such a small country they use such large aircraft for short haul routes, and they fill them up!

    Wow - Using the 777-300 for domestic routes - (with the same scheme).

    The 200ER will be for European routes.

    We may see it yet - but unlikely considering how few JAL 747 regies we actually get.

    Tommy, JA704J is actually an internationally configured 777-200. There are photos of her taken at LHR, AMS, SVO, CDG, and ZRH.

    Oh, right! Yup, in that case those 777-300s are in a domestic configuration. Cathay Pacific and ANA do the same thing. The -300ER for all three airlines are the internationally configured ones.

    I'll tell you, 2 places I really want ot spot at are in Japan and Israel. Some really great liveries to be seen out there and amazing culture to boot!
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.
