Boeings are 7*7, the last 7 is redundant and replaced by the first number of the variant. |

Perhaps you are banging the bong a little hard? |

Why yes, perhaps you are? FAAO 7340.1? http://www1.faa.gov/atpubs/cnt/5-2.htm - FAA list of equipment designators? I know that's what's used when filing flight plans. Try again, that page is a loser for you. |

I can't find 673 anywhere in the list. I expect those would be apropriate contractions for your correspondence with FAA, but here in the real world, the first 7 is dropped. Note carefully that you have been corrected by an engineer, an air traffic controller and pilots. If you want to use an insider secret code, don't expect anyone to know what you are gibbering about. |

![]() "Saryon" wrote in message news ![]() "insider secret code"? Wow, I didn't think the type designators that are used on flight plans and published openly on the FAA's own website was some sort of "secret insider code" that any traffic controlers or pilots have yet corrected me on. You should pay more attention, sock. |
