Hopefully not still in present job when 2008 rolls around.

Just trying to find out some info for a coworker that's part of a discussion on a company forum. Might consider flying one overseas though if opportunity presented itself, especially somewhere within 20 degrees of the equator and good boating facilities.

Max landing weight is 61750 lbs, and it's been a while since I've landed that heavy. I don't have the card so these speeds are approximate.

Flaps 35 - ~120 kts
Flaps 15 - ~ 130 kts
Add 15 kts for icing.
