"Saryon" wrote in message ... B762 L2J/H 767-200 BOEING B763 L2J/H 767-300 BOEING B764 L2J/H 767-400 BOEING Your assertion was that it's a "673" because you always drop the leading 7. I can't find 673 anywhere in the list. I expect those would be apropriate contractions for your correspondence with FAA, but here in the real world, the first 7 is dropped. Note carefully that you have been corrected by an engineer, note carefully you have been corrected by an idiot; who claims that Part 25 only applies to a minority of aircraft, that a spoiler is a flap, and that the words "total" and "average" are interchangeable in aircraft manuals. an air traffic controller and pilots. If you want to use an insider secret code, don't expect anyone to know what you are gibbering about. mmm yes as usual, little man, the world is wrong and tarver the drunk is right. |

Assuming the original poster meant B763 is not unreasonable. People say/post 744 or 733 and have it interpreted to Boeing 747-400 or Boeing 737-300 all the time. Not saying it's technically correct, or even right to do, but even I'm not that pedantic in the absense of similar designators to confuse it with... Even though I knew what he ment, if you look at it he is dislexic. Correctly and common is: 673 another item in Tarverworld. |

"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. |
