It really isn't that impressive though since it was designed and made and flies in pretty much the safest era of aviation.

Indeed, but those were also both 777-200ER's iirc
I stated with emphasis on the -300 part in case someone would immediately say that
find a list of all boeing 777-300 series aircraft, and you'll see not one has ever been lost yet, which is pretty damn good

But the 300's safety record regarding incidents like that occurring has nothing to do with the aircrafts design itself.

Thats awesome. If you ever have questions outside of your instructors I'll be glad to help. I've been working as a mechanic of sorts for my grandpa for the past 3 years. He owns a maitenence company and is an A&P + IA. So I've learned quite a bit.

I've got quite a few questions about flying myself..

judging by the sheer amount of astronauts from ohio i'm this close to believing you

nice! how do you like working on planes? anything i should know? i want to be as prepared as possible for this class because i'm pretty sure working on a plane is nothing like working on a car or computer which is what i'm used to doing
