The first production Boeing B777-9 aircraft, with the complete interior, expected to be delivered to Lufthansa, conducted an approximately three-hour test flight reaching FL390, after taking-off from Everett Paine Field. Lufthansa has 20 firm orders for the Boeing 777-9, acting as a launch customer for the 777X program. Due to significant certification delays, first delivery is now expected in early 2027. 🎥Ole_Nev / r/aviation #aircraft

A Kuwait Airways Boeing 777-300ER came dangerously close to a stall during landing at Amsterdam Schiphol. An excessive flare initiated too high led to airspeed loss and sink, with the tail-strike protection system stepping in to prevent further pitch-up.

The first level of the Space Zone in Super Mario Land 2 contains a hidden message in the sky that spells "HAPPY". Normally, it can only be seen in a level editor. By modifying the game to let Mario fly, we can actually see the message in-game.
