[NJAceSgt]

Love the sound of those engines, especially after it reduces thrust after takeoff...

[brownbrownson]

[N734NJ]

[bordercollie1975]

love the sound.

[brownbrownson]

thanks. so do i. :)

[brownbrownson]

thanks for the info. just pondering, are you a '57 pilot?

[PilotUTA]

I'm a 737 pilot for Continental, but the same logistics apply to any aircraft.

[brownbrownson]

@PilotUTA how often do you swing through Vegas?

[PilotUTA]

@brownbrownson Well that depends. As a pilot perhaps 6 times a month (some months many times more, and some months i don't fly there at all) . As a tourist, twice a year usually.

[PilotUTA]

Really good sound quality!!!

[PilotUTA]

the -300 uses a lot of break-away thrust!

[brownbrownson]

....explain, please. :]

[PilotUTA]

break away thrust is the amount of thrust used to make the aircraft move forward from its stopped position. In simple terms, its the amount of thrust used to allow the airplane to move. Does that help?

[PilotUTA]

On 737's we use much less break-away thrust.

[brownbrownson]

yup. arigatou. :D

[ozzieman55]

is it the B757-200 or B757-300 that is long range flights? nice vid!

[brownbrownson]

I don't quite understand your question..

[PilotUTA]

the title of the video says it is a -300!

[necroslair]

Nice. Thanks for sharing. BTW, what was the construction you zoomed in on early in the video going to be?

[brownbrownson]

thank you..! the construction is Runway 25L-7R being redone from asphalt to concrete and will be closed until 01MAY09.
