    I wonder why they're in heading mode at FL510.

      I thought the X cruised a bit faster than .80

        It does. Just not when you're at 51,000. It loves being between 39 and 43 depending on the temp.


        We were in heading mode because we were on an assigned heading. The green arc at the top of EADI indicates we're in half bank mode. The autopilot will command a steeper bank in LNAV anyway.

          Wow, FL510, very impressive.

          Here's a few taken when picking up and test flying an aircraft in HKG:

            Nice shots AJ, I dont think I need to tell you why the CX ones are my favourite. Though that CA A330 is very nice.

                  Looks like a PR A330.

                    Jeepers, they gave you a heading at 510. How much traffic could you possibly be in conflict with at that altitude, I wonder? Truly I say to you, sometimes I wonder what ATC is thinking.

                      • Does it prove you're a pilot when the first thing you notice about those pics is the speed?

                        At what point did the A/P drop out, or did you disconnect and recover before that happened?

                            That would be me in a 172.

                            Amazing shots AJ! So you did slowflight in a 763, or was that a stall?

                            • There is a stick nudger on the 767?

                              Oh dear.

                              Oh, and awesome photos! I love the CX air to air!

                                Not as bad as it sounds. It was a vector for the descent. We were already very close to the destination and needed a turn or two to get down.
