Boeings are 7*7, the last 7 is redundant and replaced by the first number of the variant.

Correctly and common is: 673 utter ****ing ******** as usual little man. tell us again how the words "average" and "total" are interchangeable in aircraft manuals. tell us again how part 25 only applies to a minority of aircraft. those LSD flashbacks of yours must be bitch. never mind, you can always down another bottle of thunderbird with your meds little man.

"Jon Parmet" wrote in message om... No one drops the first 7 for Boeing designators. I dare you to provide a cite where that is done. Why provide a cite when he's better at selling the pathology? Which do you think he gets off doing more of? Given the sheer number of plate appearances and the number of cites actually produced, we already know the answer  I answered the guys question and then agreed with our resident ATC. You may feel free to peruse previous posts to ramisc and you will find the first 7 is often dropped in conversation. If you mean to say you want to run with clueless trolls, you have found your partner, Parmet.
