Suuuuuuure it is.

The 776 angel number is often considered a powerful symbol of spiritual awakening and enlightenment.
I believe every other number that has appeared in this thread is also significant in the angel numbering system.

The 777 is a model of aeroplane by Boeing, which I used to find very modern, but which now strikes me as old-fashioned.

It's engine cowlings are bigger around than the fuselage of a Boeing 737.

U-778 was a Type VIIC U-boat built for Nazi Germany's Kriegsmarine in World War II. She only completed one combat patrol and sank no Allied ships. She was surrendered to the Allies at Bergen on 9 May 1945.

I read that about the hull and the engine cowling, but upon googling, I found the B373-NG's hull diameter to be 3,76 m, and the GE90 engine's diamter to be 3,30 m. So, similar, but not bigger. I suppose changing it to real units doesn't change anything.

None of them is 779 cm though, which is a shame, because we need a 779 in this post.

The square root of 780 is 27.9284800875 or 28 for most purposes.

The year 781 saw the crowning of Ludwig the Pious as King of Acquitane, at the tender age of three, and of his elder brother Pippin, age 4, as King of Italy. It probably doesn't matter a lot these days, but I like anything that has a LOTR name in it, so Pippin rocks.

785 saw the death of Talorgan II, king of the Picts. Or Talorgen mac Óengusa, known at the time as Dub Tholargg, if you prefer.

793 == 13*61

794 is not prime. But it is double a prime number.

Oh, I just wanted to see if you're being alert and up to speed :- O:)

799 A.D. - that year saw the first attacks by Vikings on the Northern coasts of France. Take that, Schengel!

Being as opsessive-compulsive as the next man, I feel compelled to.state that the next number should be 801. 800 came and went, even if too early and only after a correction.
