The official aviation quiz topic!

The rules are very simple:

Member A posts an aviation question, the first one to post the correct answer to the question (member B) posts a new question (must be an aviation-related question). Member B should wait till member A approves your answer

Here is my first question to get things started:

how many A380's will Airbus sell to Lufthansa?

They ordered 15. Don't know if they think about ordering more.

Correct Jan, now it's your turn to ask a question

janhuub · Post by **janhuub** » 03 Feb 2005, 14:38

Ok:

On what date was the first flight of the Boeing 747?

That's an easy one: 9 February 1969.

And, incidentally, did you know that the first B747-300 was delivered to Swissair and the last one to Sabena? Strange destiny...

Ok Andre,

your turn

Here we go:

Which were the type, the registration and the delivery date of the first Sud Aviation SE210 Caravelle to fly under the colours of Sabena?

OK Bart.

OO-SRA was also the very first Caravelle 6.

Up to you now.

I think it's better only one question and answer from the same person.

Why not start a quiz like a.net does?

They need a break from time to time. There are days with only two departures.

Let's say 3x5 + 2x2 = 19 weekly flights?

Post by **sn26567** » 04 Feb 2005, 15:00

So if I get it right, the answer to the question is: It depends

SFM should tell whether the answer is correct, and than it's up to the winner to propose a new question!
