Good Morning from Newark Liberty’s terminal B, where we will be the first long haul departure for the day!
Taxi to the active runway 22R, at an approx 96% load factor
Long takeoff and rotate at approx 164kts, with a view of an Air India A350 parked at the gates, likely flying to DEL later that day, piloted by @Nirek
Reached our initial cruising altitude of FL310 over Hartford, CT, where we will slowly step climb to FL370 as we continue over the atlantic and Europe
Cruising at FL370 over Jeddah FIR, with a view of @Mayur_Patel flying in his A350 to DEL
Morning light shining into the massive GE90s
Descending over South Bombay’s suburbs, as we overfly VANM and perform an ILS approach towards RWY 27 at BOM
On final approach, overflying the displaced threshold of Runway 27, followed by a very smooth landing at -64fpm
Taxiing towards T2, post-landing configuration clean up has been completed
And we have arrived at last! Thank you for joining me on this long winded flight!
