A300 transcontinental flight

[cspyro21]

Took the SGA A300 up today, decided to fly from KLAX to TNCM (I had to fly on 16X speed, otherwise the trip would have taken 8 hours when I had only 3 )


Ready to go at the gate, engines running and passengers on-  note the other A300's nose poking into the shot
Also, I was reading Jake's post with the AA 777, and a few of you said that the AA livery suited it. It suits the 777 well, and the A300 doesn't look bad in it


Roaring away from KLAX at 7:30AM local time and waving goodbye to Las Vegas. (Compressioned raped this pic, sorry  :-[)

Climbing up to cruise height and taking in the view. The passengers were in for a treat today - clear, warm skies and a great view for a lot of the trip.


At FL360, sitting back and admiring the view of the deserts below.


After a good 6 hours, we were fast approaching TNCM. On final here with a very light bird. (Compression didn't do this pic any favours either)


Classic A.Net TNCM shot as we glide over Maho Beach


Touchdown! The planespotter who took this pic got it exactly right.


And after a long, 8 hour flight, we arrived at 3:45pm local time as the passengers depart the aircraft and get ready for a good holiday/vacation.

Hope you like them!

In real life can a 777 travel that distance without having to land to refuel for the whole trip?

Sure, no problem.  A solid 7 hour flight, about 1/2 the total amount of time the 777 can be operated on *normal* commercial operations.

Nice pics
