A340 is somewhat hard to get airborn at times! The game Fight Simulatore X shows that this is true and a near fatal accident just happend 2 years ago when an A340 ran 3.5km then a tail strick plus breaking some runway lights in order to take off!
@GameMaster2565 Please write the full story: This accident was caused by a wrong value typed into the FMS for the takeoff performance. The grossweight was iserted 100 tons too low.
@nikko0752 FYI SQ had A340-313X back in late 1990/early 2000..they're being replaced with Boeing 777-200ER and SQ removed the A340 from the fleet..we can now see SQ A340-300 flying for CX, EK, and some Airlines..I still remember when SQ had tradition to gived name of their aircraft..SQ A340-313X is called "Celestar" back then while the A340-500 is called "Leadership"..
unfortunately I doubt it very much that any passengers can visit the cockpit these days. When I was a kid I sat in the cockpit for a 747 landing, HS 748 take-off (captain's seat for most of the climbout). Nowadays this would never be allowed
@efast00 Depends.... US flights is not allowed... some captains may agree for a short visit during flight. IN the ground for sure you can visit the cockpit, even take photos with the crew...
