• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Boeing’s 787-9 Dreamliner

That's not a vertical takeoff...


And yes, airliners are surprisingly agile when not filled to the brim with butts and luggage.
 
Hiya,

Is it me or did he land twice in the displaced threshold area....???

More than once I've had to do a double take passing an airport: an airliner would be taking off in the opposite direction to my driving and the runway is parallel to the road. Get it right and by a trick of viewpoint and the intervening scenery the aircraft appears to lift vertically. Wot? :biggrin-new:
 
Can one of the admins remove the ' from the title and link to this thread please? If I just click on the link I get told its not a valid link by the SOH server. Have remove the ' from Boeing's in order to view.
