Today I'm not here to read more about 737s and MCAS. Although, even concerning the 737 I heard something through the grapevine. Somebody said that it is not impossible that LH comes back to the club of 737 owners. Probably he didn't quite see a reason why LH today is not able to provide info about a 737 built in 2019 at first hand. But pst. Nobody (!) has yet confirmed that.
Let's talk about something which is yet in the jetphotos database.

What do we see here. A parking position which perfectly fits for a B744. But the 779 has to fold her wings (!) before she fits.
So, that's a picture of a B779 with folded wings, isn't it?
On both wings a B779 is able to fold.. more than 3 meters as far as I remember, 7 m in total, from 71,8 m wingspan down to 64,8?
So, is it a folded B779, or rather a parking position with a 72 x 72 m box? It seems quite tight indeed.
First flight of a B779 has not yet happened. Expected Q2 2019, they say at en wiki. But that is today. Or tomorrow!
