Alright. Somewhat technical.
1) Is it possible to tell what type of plane it is just by their navigation lights? The other night I was standing out on my deck watching some traffic at altitude pass overhead. With Boeing and Airbus planes, are the navigation lights different? Three planes passed overhead, looking from the back one had just two wing tip white lights along with strobes. Another had wing tip as well as a center rear. Do B and A have different setup's? The last was the same as the first. Now oncoming you can just see port and starboard colored lights.
2) Does the A330 have a large wingspan compares to similar types? I just noticed that the other day while cleaning my models. Now I don't know how accurate the models are, but I just noticed that. (eg. 767).
If it does have a larger wingspan, does it benefit it at all? Reduce thrust requirement? [...]
That's all I have on the top of my head.
