McDonnell Douglas vs. Boeing

An old friend of ours has recently updated me on his career as an airline pilot. He used to fly the McDonald Douglas Super-80, but just upgraded to flying the Boeing 777-300 aircraft. He sent me a short video of his new cockpit and controls. It shows views from the aircraft cameras located in the tail, recording the engines and the contrails that the engines emit as well as the view below. The engines are the world's most powerful engines and produce 120 thousand pounds of thrust each. Landing gear on the B777 is the largest in the world. The video was shot between London and Los Angeles over Canada.

He and his family have been coming to Hotel Sparerhof since 1993. They enjoy spending time in the hotel and surrounding areas for relaxation. Their most recent visit was this past June.
