@Thebmwisthebest yeah??????????

Ahh ic ok.The thing is I never noticed when it opens.Does it open from the inside or does it open from the outside?

[xhappyxlifex]

the sounds is becuase the engine is powering up but its powering in reverse so the engine is actually pulling the plane back tos top it.

[TheAark]

@xhappyxlifex Actually they don't use reverse thrusters untill all wheels touch the runway, then they engage reverse thrust. The Engine powering up was probally to maintain the correct descent speed.

[xhappyxlifex]

@TheAark Yea I know that I was talking when they use reverse thrust :P I know the power up sometimes during approach to not stall I meant at 1:04

[winsy11]

It seems like it goes to full power but it is actually the reverse thrust.. I makes a lot of noise. Have you ever noticed how the engine opens a litlle? It helps the plane slow down.

[1091Alcatraz]

If anyone can answer me to this question I would like to know why when an airplane lands,why does it seem that the engines are cranked to full power?

USUALLY lufthansa uses a340 to/from munich and b747 to/from frankfurt...am i right?? could some1 tell me? i've been in both airports (with LH) and it seemed to me..

[steve90254]

You are correct. Lufthansa uses an A340-300 or 600 for MUC-LAX and a 747-400 for FRA-LAX. Rumor has it that they will switch to an A340 for one of the two daily flights out of Frankfurt since the second 747 isn't fully booked.

[DAIRX]

It is right. LH will use A340-600 in summer2009 out of Frankfurt, too. Two of their A340-600 will then meet in LAX ;-)

[amin654]

yes thaats correct im gonna be on one this saturday

[anush10]

i hope they switch the 744 is very outdated

[XxNiMr0D7000xX]

@steve90254 dude they switch it up all the time. My dad has gone to EDDF many times in a 340-600 but I prefer 747 all the way ;-)

[toonamitom]

there are non-stop flight from germany to LA its a 14 hour flight but its a daily flight

[TonyFirelli]

More like 18 because it's 18 from england to LA.

[craiglsimons]

ACTUALLY, it's 11hrs 40mins from London Heathow to Los Angeles. I've done it myself.

[TonyFirelli]

How can an airplane fly from Germany all the way to Los Angelas?

[MaverickPilot88]

You apparently haven´t notion of airplanes!!

[TonyFirelli]

notion? I'm not gonna argue with you...
