Heavy takeoff out of St. Maarten. Lovely purple sky.
Cruising over the Atlantic (I've seen enough of it for my entire life
) at Flight Level 380. Sun is about to rise.
Descending over the United States. Just passed Glendale.
And finally, after 8 hours in the air, this 777-300ER slows down on runway 7R at Los Angeles International.
Parked at the gate, deboarding next to a Delta 757 and an Alaska 737.
Next flight: Los Angeles - Kingsford Smith. Qantas A380 all the way
And I finally decided on my plane usages:
Los Angeles - Kingsford Smith: Qantas A380-800
Kingsford Smith - Hong Kong Chep Lap Kok: Cathay Pacific 747-400
Hong Kong Chep Lap Kok - Stockholm Arlanda: Scandinavian A340-300
Stockholm Arlanda - London Gatwick: British Airways 757-200.
Will NOT be finished before eastern is over though.
Total flight time now: 18 hours.
