Requesting ACA034 - nonstop SYD-YVR

[Guest KD Larsen]

Aparently, the A340-300 is able to do the above mentioned run non-stop (I'd really hate to see the climb performance of that one!), and since I'll be spending the weekend at home, I thought that this flight would be a nice challenge. Apparently, the non-stop flight is popular since people no longer have to go through US customs & immigration during transit.So, does anyone have access to a decent flightplan? (it doesn't have to an actual one) :)

It goes via a stop in Honolulu. edit: Wait they did appear to change it to nonstop. hmm. I'll see what I can dig up. Right now I can only get the last portion of the plan.

[Guest KD Larsen]

I'll take anything you can give me :) - the great circle track goes roughly over Hawaii, so it should be easy to figure out the first part.

Hmm, Looks like they fly YVR-HNL-SYD-YVR.

Thanks a million! Can't wait to get home & plot these routes. Should be a fun trip to fly on Friday/Saturday :)As for the truncation, I'll see what I can come up with in between & post it.

[Guest KD Larsen]

My suggestions for the first part of the routes - is it possible to check them somewhere?DCT ENTRA DCT IFFEY B580 TAVER/GITON & then as above.

Kaspar,I couldn't find anything to fill in the blank. It seems that lately, that flight has been chopping even more off. However, this route seems to provide a little more info:YSSY./.LTO.B580.BOILS.B580.BINNY.B580.CHOKO..ZIGIE..2800N/15500W..3400N/15000W..3800N/14500W..4100N/14000W..4600N/13000W..SHARI..PEKAA..FOCHE.SHARK4.CYVR/1401 Hope that helps,TrevorV1VrV2

I got bored and was interested in running a flightplan using the route above. ETP data did not calculate for YSSY-NFFN-PHNL. Current winds are used.
