SFO-HKG!?

Seattle · **on:** May 13, 2008, 04:52:39 am

Okay, I was expecting to make a SFO-HKG route with a 767-200ER, I discovered that the -200ER's range couldn't do it, however, I noticed 767-300ER's which have signifigantly less range than the -200ER and they were able to fly it..... rather weird.

Probably not flying a round trip

Is this plane on any other routes? Cause there is the rule of only two .5 routes on a plane

There vertually the same and it still doesnt make sense why I cant fly there with a -200ER and the -300ER works.... ADMINS!

First: Calm down. There is no need to shout. You could be glad that..., no won't tell you

Now, have you ever considered buying different engine variants? It is possible to use the -200ER for this route, too. Don't you know the route research tool? :shock: It shows you which aircraft with which engine can be used for that route. SFO-HKG

Boeing 767-200ER
Type Name   Range   Speed   Seats   Engines
Boeing 767-200ER   7,658   460   290   GE CF6-80C2B7F

Boeing 767-300ER
Type Name   Range   Speed   Seats   Engines
Boeing 767-300ER   7,077   460   350   GE CF6-80C2B7F
Boeing 767-300ER   6,990   460   350   P&WC PW4062

Ok, which -200ER variant did you buy?

I knew that those engine variants would be problematic.... blame JAWA

Hm, look how many posts Seattle already wrote. If he had READ that many posts in the past he would probably know about the engine variants

Don't blame JAWA - blame Seattle today

I am offended!

I know about the engine types. The plane that I had, had plenty range, but it couldnt fly the route.... it doesnt matter, since now my pax can connect through HND

. Refering to your other post, I was perfectly calm. :wink:

is that the choices of engine will increase when time goes by???
are there a list show when will the engines be available to choose?

just now i log on to world4 and look at the engine list....it's awesome...
i guess i will use b767-200ER as my main long haul fleet...lol
but Tu-114D is still my favourite one.....though it is not available anymore in world6

Depends on the real life variants (and reliable sources recording them)
