First AA 77W (N717AN) To DFW Tomorrow (11 Dec)
Worthy of own thread IMO
AA's first 777-300 will be arriving at DFW tomorrow (11th) at approx. 3:45pm.
Unfortunately I won't be travelling so let us know if you see her.

Does the 77W undergo similar "AA-ization" after delivery that the 738s do? I was amazed to learn how extensively AA reworks the 738s after delivery.

I'd be interested to find out more about this process. To me it seems fascinating. Where did you find this interesting tidbit?

I'll be on AA50 today so I'll keep an eye open if I get to the airport a little early ...
