First Choice 757 with winglets landing at Manchester airport (view in HQ)

[09shadowjet]

Look at the engine ! the model same with airbus engine but the power of 757 engine was 9.000.000.000.000.000.000.000.­000.000x bigger then airbus engine

[09shadowjet]

the 757 power is very strong look at the video boeing 757 first flight.

I LIKE 757 VERY MUCH, SHE'S MY BEST GIRLFRIEND EVER

[karu1402]

The 757 isn't that great a plane... 

[blueb0g]

@karu1402 Subjective - what makes you say that?

[SuperMole666]

this plane is now painted in the awful thomson colours and des german do not paint the rolls royce badge on the engines either

[KYLEAIRWAYS]

LOL Now I got 1 star raters too. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2009

[jordanslevin1]

whats so special about winglets what diffrence does it make lol please answer me

[blueb0g]

They reduce drag by destroying the wingtip vorticies, translating to a 4-6% increase in fuel efficiency and therefore range.

[jordanslevin1]

thank you

[kingcarcas1349]

They make a plane look sexier.

[rachaelmatt]

Love the 757, 1 of my favourite planes. Awesome video. Still not all the first choice 757's have winglets wen will they all change livery and all have winglets??

[blueb0g]

they will soon all have winglets. But they will be in the Thomson livery.

[Paintheshed]

Yes lovely nose on the 757, Airbus seems to be shapeless up front to me. Nice winglets

[Criscocheeseman200]

you just gotta love the 757

[blueb0g]

yep! As I do!

[alex10340]

Are all of first choices fleet going to be painted in thomson livery????

[blueb0g]

yes.

[rockinchairboy]

why has it got winglets on is it something to do with thomson and first choice merge?

[blueb0g]

A lot of airlines are doing this, just to boost fuel efficiency.

[fsxflyer2009]

the boeing 737 was the first airliner to have winglets

[blueb0g]

Was the 747-400 before it? I think so....

[GatwickSpotting]

I think he means the 737 was the first with blended winglets. I always found the ones on 744s seeming rather old.

[blueb0g]

I think you're right there.

[ryanairways]

well cold i just try it if no then say no if yes then wooooooh! lol

[ryanairways]

i dont like pmdg why whats wrong with wilco?

[blueb0g]

you don't like PMDG? well, with Wilco, the handling is about the same as PMDG, but the graphics are worse and the model is less detailed.

[ryanairways]

there not crap when u next go to the avp let me now the day before  if its ok with u i dont mean to sound cheeky can i put the wilco 777 on my fs2004 then bring it back to u when u g0 next time

[blueb0g]

look, i've got them, and they suck. If you want a good addon, go for PMDG.

[ryanairways]

there not crap theere the 2 i need and want lol when u next going airport?

[blueb0g]

they are not good. A few weeks.

[jamess094]

[bumscab1]

Nice video mate, nice to see the First Choice/Thomson 757 in wl, hopefully Thomas Cook will get some. Filming conditions seemed quite tricky so well done. 5 stars.

[blueb0g]

[AirportVids]

Great video 5*. Love First choice and the 757!

[blueb0g]

thanks!

[Dudeboy4000]

Great video mate.

Was this taken on the 6th?

[Dudeboy4000]

Never mind, It was xD

I've seen your cathay 744F landing and recognised it (B-HUL) If you were on the long platform, i was the tall blonde lad (long hair) at the right side (near concorde) :) Was quite quiet at some points xD

[blueb0g]

cool. yeah, it was quiet for a bit.... suppose that's good because it lets us get chips!

[Dudeboy4000]

yup. The chips at the AVP are the best :P Im heading up again this coming tuesday (14th).

[blueb0g]

aaargh, me too! Well, maybe. I'll be at the airport. The wind is easterly, so they'll be landing on 05R/05L.

[Dudeboy4000]

Yes! Only ever been when landings were on the 05's :)

[blueb0g]

you mean 23's? Anyway, it might not be, fingers crossed.... there is a 50/50 chance, because the wind is showing SE for tuesday.... They will defienetly be landing on the 05's on thursaday. Well, we'll see...

[Dudeboy4000]

yehh i mean 23s. I've only been once were the 05's were on. :P

I hope so

[blueb0g]

yep. It's looking more like it now. God, BBC weather is annoying me. Anyway, maybe see you there - i'll be the one with the camera and the tripod!

[Dudeboy4000]

I'll try be observant buhh if you do look around, im a tall blonde teenager wearing glasses :) and probs a black bag with "Airwalk" on it

[blueb0g]

cool.

[AndrewHeyworth]

Nice one mate!

[blueb0g]
