Route, EGLL, London Heathrow to OMAA, Abu Dhabi. FMGEC initialised and flight plan uploaded. Yes, nowadays we don't have to programme the flight plan into the computer anymore, just type in the flight number and the flight plan will be loaded automatically.
That will give more time for me to feed in the info into my iPad, so that I can have the route map drawn on the iPad. With the 3G model, aircraft position shown , as a purple plane symbol in a circle as above. The coordinate also can be checked.
Ready to go, all doors closed and tow truck connected. The camera is very handy beside used a guidance during taxi. Only 340-600 and 500 have this features.
when we reached the holding point for runway 09R, few planes already there waiting for their turn for take off. With the precise timing by the controller and good cooperation by the pilots, within 3 minutes, 2 planes can take off.
