      Close. I think it's the 'no automation' indicator.

        Cowboy freighter pilot. Holds the record for the Kessel run. I think he flew for Star Alliance.

            He is the captain of the Aircraft Carrier S.S. Essess from the movie Hot Shots.

                My favorite line from the movie begins as follows: "Playing for a coach that throws the game is like having sex with your sister..." (The comments that follow that are even better)

                  What do you do with an elephant and three balls?

                    I'm not completely sure. Walk him and pitch to the giraffe?

                      I believe the rhino was SOP, but here we can allow for some improvisation.

                        I got the fundamental concept.

                          [...]
                          Under normal conditions, I'd say, I only open weblinks whereupon I've done a deep research concerning the weblink provider. But I'm able to make exceptions, e.g. when the person who shares the weblink is trustful.

                          A full 360? You know me. My questions, like in the Canada Highway topic, always are:
                          airport?
                          aircraft?

                          'This is Dorval approach, 127.48 . Would you please use Highway # 42 on vector xyz for your arrival! Fly straight in.'

                          A full 360, on board a 747-400? Canada has always been helpful, I don't think that a Canadian atc would do something like that. Ok, now let me view it.
                          The German long haul is alive, 65 years and still kicking.
                          The Gold Member in the 747 club, 50 years since the first LH 747.
                          And constantly advanced, 744 and 748 /w upper and lower EICAS.
                          This is Lohausen International airport speaking, echo delta delta lima.

                            First of all, the music in the background is what I call brilliant. I mostly use that song only when all engines are /off, but I'm able to learn.
                            AC/DC - Thunderstruck. Very very brilliant.

                            aircraft: They write: Boeing 737, but that's not what they show at 0:37. That's a 727!
                            airport: Mogadishu?! Since 1977, nobody was ever able to find a better airport for a Boeing video...

                            As I said, Canadian atc would rather provide a different solution.

                            Not really a 737 but a 727. But the rest is.. brilliant.

                            As I said, most of the videos which I've seen here in the forum in the past 48 hours do not really work with a 747-400, the Canadian Highway and this one included.

                            The German long haul is alive, 65 years and still kicking.
                            The Gold Member in the 747 club, 50 years since the first LH 747.

                              Ahm. Hans is my brother, and he indeed flies for the Star Alliance. Lufthansa Cargo MD-11F . You don't know him?

                                This threat is basically what I think may have inspired the manuever:
