I get that they're capable and all but I'm able to detect seemingly slight course adjustments pretty easily. Doubt a full on barrel roll would feel insignificant.

Thanks. Although I no longer travel on a regular basis, when I did starting back in the mid '60s, I accumulated a hell of a lot of hours and miles flying all over the world. Most of it in Boeing jets. Thanks to you and your colleagues for the superb job you do.

Thank you sir, I sincerely appreciate that. Fortunately throughout my career I've been able to be a "if it's not Boeing, I'm not going" type of guy. My gratitude is the completion of each successful mission.

Yeah. Seeing the horizon leave the bottom of the window and reapeer from the top would be a dead give away

Idk a whole lot about jumbo jets to know how "dangerous" that stuff was but I the only thing about that video that really stuck out to me was how quick he got the plane off the ground.....

I have no issue with them testing it hard. Atleast they will know if it can handle the flights

Out of curiosity if you don't mind answering, has all of your flying been commercial or did you have military experience prior to going commercial? TIA.

I may or may not have had a loose affiliation with a band of pirate types in Belle Chasse, briefly, maybe, maybe not.

Gotcha.
I spent 20 in the USAF which kind of prompted the question.

I gotcha, again in general, what are you looking at, what's your age, schooling, plans? Give me generics. I might be able to give you some insight.
