did you do it yet?

Nope. Gonna do it in the weekend so I can actually have some time.

My new longest flight was LAX-Sydney which I did over the summer, a roughly 15 hour flight.

Ouch! So what did you do during those 15 hours?

My joystick broke..

 

I was thinking about doing United 777 to Paris... not sure from where though.

[Spyrosv]

Well almost every flight is being operated by a the 787-9 so I'd recommend Denver or SFO. I'm sorry for your joystick .

RIP Joystick 20??-2017

 

My joystick has gone strong for 7+ years, and it only cost like 15 euros.

Having done those a lot (UA 744 TPAC was my specialty), usually you do this thing called having a life in those 15 hours.

I flew from JFK to Bangkok once with the Thai Airways A340-600. About 19 hours with headwinds

1) How does a 757 have the range for ATL-LIS?

2) How does a flight ATL-LIS take 12 hours?

3) How does a 767 have the range for LIS-SFO?

4) How does a flight LIS-SFO take 15 hours?

757 has the range of 3900 NM, flight was 3800 NM

The actual route is around 3500 miles, but I took a longer route into Greenland which is about 3700 to 3900 Nmiles

ER variant, 6000 NM range

The actual route is 4700 Nmiles, but I took a higher airway which increased the flight's length, I like longer flights

[Spyrosv]

I like longer flights

IKR

[Infestation]

I like longer flights also but I've only did 1 long Haul that I actually finished.

[Pasti]

Longest for me is Bogota to Los Angeles on Avianca 787-8, 8 hrs.

 

Also did Los Angeles to Malta on United 787-9, took 11 hours and 15 minutes.

[KINGXyro]

Longest for me is Manila to Los Angeles a 12 hour flight on a Boeing 777-300 ER of Philippine Airlines.

 

Shortest is San Francisco to Los Angeles a 1 hour and 45 minute flight on an Airbus A320 of U.S Airways.

[A220]

Longest is FRA-SFO on an LH A380. Shortest is SXM-St Baths. Fun little flight I gotta say.
