  • Love the sound! =D Do you possibly remember what seat you were sat in?

  • @HeathrowPilot No can't remember from that long ago. I usually try to get a window seat that's just behind the wing. With online booking you usually get a diagram of the aircraft showing where the wing is.

  • @thamesking Well i got myself a window seat (29J) when i booked today. But I just wanted to see what it would look like from inside. But thanks anyway =)

  • @HeathrowPilot That must be very close to the row I was in but on the right hand side. Enjoy the flight!

  • Hi Speedbird - nearly all big airliners take off with a small amount of flap, about 10 -20 degrees, to reduce take-off speed and shorten the take-off run. There is an upper limit of speed for each amount of flap and you will see the flaps being retracted in stages after take-off as the speed increases. Flaps give drag as well as lift so if the pilot didn't retract them the flaps and the wings would be damaged. But pilots wouldn't let that happen.
