I hAve a couple thousand hrs in those type, we don't land on the nose wheel, normally. In that pic, that's where I would begin the flare to keep the nose off the grnd until touch-down. Should lose about 15kts at idle and MLG touch a little beyond initial NW flare point. 10kts headwind.

My old man flew those at Dobbins until they swapped out for the C130. He really enjoyed flying it. Had some crazy incidents, too... including one where one MLG wouldn't come down and they ended up breaking out a window and dislodging the gear with a pole!

I see "open reserve days" is now a link under open time in iCrew....
How much does the reserve guarantee go up if you take this?
I really hope this does not kill too many green slips.

Flew them at Kwajalein / Meck / Roi Namur in the Marshall Islands. One fine short field airplane. Photo is Meck Island - fun at night in the rain with a cross wind.

Question about this from Council 1,
"New Aircraft: Delta is pursuing an order for 8–12 wide-body aircraft for delivery starting in 2015. These will be used for flying from West Coast (SEA/LAX) to Asia (HKG, PVG, PEK) with the ability to over-fly NRT/HND."
"Hiring: We anticipate a nominal amount of hiring in 2014; currently estimating 60 per month January–June, then 20 per month."
Are we contemplating not having NRT if we are looking for WBs to overfly it?
If so I hope we get some of these just so we can have as many varied types of WBs as we do NBs

Anyone have experience PD your entire line, then try to fill up via WS? Failed bidding this month! It seems some guys do this, but risky?
