February 20, 200719 yr I know it's a random question, it came to me towards the end of a pleasant 744F freight run from KORD down to MMMX just earlier. What is the longest continuous Airway on the planet?If it follows a particularly interesting route it might be worth flying it one day! Mark Adeane - NZWN
February 20, 200719 yr Mark, while not specific airways, as they vary day by day depending on the upper wind forecast, they could be the non-stop Flex Tracks across the Pacific between Sydney (YSSY) and Melbourne (YMML)Australia & Aukland (NZAK), and the US West Coast. Normally 13 to 14 hours for the B744. NeilYPAD http://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/ng_driver.jpgNeil Bradley
February 21, 200719 yr That's a good question Mark and a question I'd like the answer to as well. I wonder if anybody really knows.
February 21, 200719 yr UN741 from Buenos Aires to KEPER (Star to LFPG)The UN741 cross the Uruguay, Brazil, Atlantic Ocean and finish in France.Is good to you?:-)
February 21, 200719 yr Here my entry: The longest continuous airway in the world is G223, from PQ south of RJAA, 7278 miles to SAREG in the middle of nowhere (that is 1134 miles east of FAAA). THey don't come much longer than that. You can fly RJAA-FAAA, lovely destination.
February 21, 200719 yr Author UN741 From Paris down to South America was my guess also, but it looks like Marten is our current leader. Anyone able to top this? :-) Mark Adeane - NZWN
February 21, 200719 yr Author Link to a Pprune thread on this matter.http://www.pprune.org/forums/showthread.php?t=145608They refer to some now-deleted routes that were positively EPIC. UA1 apparently started in Western Scotland and went to Hong Kong! Mark Adeane - NZWN
