I remember getting to go aboard this plane once back when it was still at the NASA Langley Research Center in Hampton, VA. I got to look inside the virutual cockpit (which I still see installed in this video) and see all of the computers they had at that time. It's good to see this plane again...brings back memories :-)

Yep, and boeing also got in trouble with R&R trent 800.. . And, AFAIK, nowadays the only choice for the b777 is the GE90. Coming back in topic, I love jt8d sound, recalls my childhood flights on dc9s. :-)

@glsole No probs man , Thanks for the info ... boeing has been having problems with Engine manufacturers .... Like when they were building the 777 , There first order of planes were 36 something 777's with Pratt & Whitney engines (idk the model no) But they were built for the Boeing 777 and those things had problems , When they fitted the engine to their 747-100 Test Bed , It had an engine surge for some reason .lol . Pratt & Whitney were turned down when they offer engines 4 the 787 ...

Ehm, I should have written "I *also* suggest*...". :-) (Sorry, english is not my mother language, as You will have noticed...) BTW, just to say that cfm56 engine has been obviously much more problematic to fit on the b737 than the narrowest previous jt8d engine (it could be mounted under the wing, not the cfm56, and the latter even required other modifications related to accessories positioning...).

@glsole What do you mean ??? already told him why the 737 had long engines ...

:) ... I Love the 737 ... Awesome plane ....
