Why no AF 777-200ER Hogan ?

superbou · 08-11-2005, 03:24 PM

As you must know Af is very well represented in Hogan's catalog. You can find almost every type currently in use by the french company but no 777-200ER.
It's a bit weird that they released the 777-300ER (which is a great model) and no the 777-200ER.
Do anyone know why ?
Every ideas are welcome.
Thanks

Im not sure if this will work but why dont you just swap wings. I am going to experiment myself by converting my AF 744 to a 743 by swapping wings with a AF 742 jet.

I'll post pics when im done so every body can give their opinions

It could be a good idea Larry but unlike the 747-300 / -400 the 777-300 is much more long than the 777-200. So the change of the wing couldn't be a solution.
Anyway for the 747 with no doubt it is a good tip.

Cheers, Arno

Arno,

Isnt the 777-200er a standard body 722 combined with the 773er wing (& rakelets)?...if so, a wing swap solution might work.

I don't think you guys understand what he wants. He wants a 777-200ER. Hogan only makes an AF 777-300ER. No matter what wings he puts on a -300, it's not going to shrink to a -200.

And no, 777-200ERs do not have raked wingtips. Those are only on the -300s.

Edited to fix a typo...
