@Taipei127 I totally think it is completely unnessecary to replace the 744. i think it's a really good aircraft for cx and really suits it's cabin design. I really don't think cx should order the a350 and i think they should get rid of the a340 and buy a a380 or a 747 8i or a 787
If that was me, I'd be landing with NO reverse thrust if I knew I had enough runway to decelerate, and I don't care if I use a lot of runway. To save fuel. Spoilers and autobrakes only! :-D HKG's runways are nice and long (a little over 12,000 feet).
@XxPeanutDavidxX Actually, it's a "TX1", which is an older model that's no longer available. I bought it as a gift for someone, so I no longer have this camera. This video was meant to be a test of TX1. I don't know about TX100, but based on my limited experience on TX1, I think it's pretty good. Sweep Panorama works quite well. TX100 does seem to have more features and better specifications... so I assume it is better. :)
@benjasmine Are alcohol free on this flight? I got an 18 hour flight on this plane and I'd like to be knocked out in my chair. Also, what's the chances of terrorists planting a bomb on this plane? And also, what are the chances of having a dumbass pilot on this plane?
@XxPeanutDavidxX However, 777 is determined to be the most efficient airliner ever design before the establishment of the 787. 777 isone of the airliners I like the most
I LOVE the 777's. I am hoping to be a pilot for Cathay Pacific, and I would like to fly the longer reouts wich uses 777-300er :)

@Taipei127: Landing with no reverse thrust? Don't take a risk. You only have one life. Don't waste it on experiment.

Is that SMOOTH? It's just a normal landing, that's all.
