Delta AL new 777LR
 

N709DL was delivered to Atlanta yesterday so should see it here soon.

I was extremely lucky as I did the boeing factory tour at Seattle Paine field last Saturday and saw this aircraft do either a final test run or an actual delivery flight.

N710DN (40560) ferried Everett-Seattle-Tacoma the following day (24th).
So 2 to look out for!

Edit: Of course N709DL should read N709DN - where is OPSM?

Des Hasler (Manly Sea Eagles coach for the non-NRL followers) might have their number on speed dial...;)

Yes Nigel spot on, but, will he pay for me? The Footy Show did a clever skit on this topic.

If he won't, you could always rip a door or two off its hinges...

Peter et al,

N709DN should be making its first (anyone confirm?) visit tomorrow morning. On its way from LAX-SYD as DL9761. (In addition to the regular DL17)

Cheers
Gerard

25 minutes late this morning ....

N709DN DL9761 22/05/2010 05:39 B777-232LR (40559) 23-3-2010 - Delta Airlines - Los Angeles-Sydney

The Sydney Airport flight information board has DL9671 and ACARS has DL9761.

First pickup for my ACARS.

And again, tomorrow morning, their newest 777 N710DN will be in as DL9761.

Cheers

Yep, thanks Gerard it did arrive this morning.
