Synchronicity

High altitude airliner over flying Montreal
I never close the windows!
Eagle talons!
What a lovely pair.
Awesome flaps shot
goodrich
Synchronicity by caribb.
Complex flaps, massive GE90 engines, triple boogy landing gear and speed all dance together to bring this giant Air France 777-200 back down to Earth. When you stop a realize what's involved it is quite amazing what planes do with so little effort on a daily basis.

Nice, sharp photo & interesting angle, I hope you were holding onto something so the wake turbulence didn't take you out!

Kinda looks like a bird of prey with the talons outstretched. It always amazes me to see how much a widebody can alter its airfoil, what with the mother of all flaps plus the slats.

The American Boeing 797-200 may be even bigger that the Airbus A380
Here is a photo at the top, showing the Boeing 797 mammoth passenger jet. It's only a matter of time with American ingenuity.

hk_inop, FrizzText & Peter Ellis - Thanks for the invites and/or comments :)

bumba_raas_clot - I hope if Boeing comes up with a worthy competitor to the A380 class of aircraft it's a brand new design not a reworked 747. They will also have to do it yesterday since the A380 is already a reality. The 747-8 isn't selling well to passenger airlines and for that matter new customer A380 sales have stalled for the most part as well. IT could be there is only a very small market for these massive airliners.. the 787 seems to be the sales winner in the end albeit a smaller capacity hub busting aircraft. Smaller is better sometimes and on that front Boeing has already won :)

@muppetcakes, @jalalspages, Mr Azza & aberdidi - Thanks for the invites & done! Just to let you know though, I'm a member of over 1100 groups, if there are any special requirements you are asking me to do when posting in your groups and I don't do them it's because with that many groups I cannot remember who asks for what... unless the group name is extremely specific with action instructions which in 99% of the cases they aren't or there isn't enough room for there to be.... so just delete me, I won't be offended and I apologize here now in advance for my mistake. I don't normally join such groups for this reason. Thanks for understanding.
@stevieboyuk & @GOlution_thesolution - Thanks very much for your comments!
@Esparta - Gracias! I'm honored you chose it.
