- I miss Channel 9 -- have never seen it turned on on the 77W :-(
I've had Channel 9 on on two of my three 77W flights. The same pool of pilots can fly the 772 as 77W, so it's Captain-specific and not plane-specific (all 77Ws are capable). Thus not a Polaris "Enhancement." Let's see if the 787-10s and A350's come Channel 9 capable.
