Made another “long haul,” this time between SFO and SYD with United in the B77W. SFO departure was at night and while enjoyable (first night takeoff), it made me realise how much needed are functional aircraft lights.
The second leg had me takeoff from Sydney and fly far away until I got to my flightplan zone inside the region. I then followed everything until I landed. My only gripe was that I had to use runway 24R, significantly shorter for a B77W, than 24L (the waypoints didn’t make sense).
Here are the photos and the video at the bottom.
