Hello everyone! I am planning on starting a flight from LAX to New Delhi. The problem is that I am not sure if the aircraft I am planning on using a make it there (B772ER). Yesterday I finished my flight from LAX to Dubai with about 25% of my fuel remaining, and I’m not sure I can make it to New Delhi, even with the same conditions as my last flight. Does anyone have any suggestions for a specific plane I should use that could get there? Thanks in advance.
The 777-200ER probably can make it from LAX-DEL. If you want to be play it safe, take the 777-200LR.
Use the Boeing 777-200LR and Stay at 32000
Ok thank you so much for the advice and the fast reply.
Just use Simbrief and let the system calculate the Trip with your input.
The problem is with simbrief is that I can’t log into it for some reason
Well, that’s not good. Don’t know if there are other tools for calculation?
Oh wait no I got it working sort of
Take a peek at the 777-200LR section in the topic below. Will help you save the most fuel possible.
772 will do nearly 20 hours with max passengers and cargo. You’ll be fine.
77L I think it’s closer to 25.
Yeah, I’m about 2 hours into the flight, and there is 15 hours left till I get to India, and I have 17h30m left of fuel
I know that is a far flight,but last night I took a Doha to Dallas flight with 200LR,if I would recommend starting flight. At like 10:00PM so you can keep track of it when you wake up.
Ok thanks for letting me know
