Anyone knows where to find the 777-200LR airplane to complete this challenge?

Doesn't it say somewhere that it hasn't been released yet? Even if it has, from what I read it'll only be new dynamics for the existing B773 model. Pity really. :(

Maybe faster... but will it do Singapore - New York? A340 can... 18 hours...

Trembling seven might do it in less time, but will it carry the same pax load? Speed difference is, what, mach 0.85 for Airbii and 0.9 for the triple? Hardly a contest IMHO... Give me a ride in a "3456" any day.

:wink:

(to the uninitiated, that's A340 -500 / -600)
