October 12, 201213 yr KORD-VHHH with PMDG 747-400 and OpusFSX weather. I didn't fly the actual departure time,but used real time,because there are issues with Opus. The metars were right on with actual, there were occasional sudden weather shifts,but the A/P maintained control. Cant wait for the PMDG 777-300ER!

October 12, 201213 yr What a feat! Now, were you in front of the computer the WHOLE time or did your "relief crew" take over?

October 12, 201213 yr LONG.... I remember doing long flights in the PMDG 744 - would depart about an hour before I go to bed, then when I wake up, if the computer or sim has not frozen I would be a couple hours from TOD... Was great.. Cant wait for the 777... Brent Lewis
October 12, 201213 yr Boy that is long! How much payload did you take?? My longest was LFPG to VHHH on Vastim so had to check every 20 minutes or so as per their rules. I was glad to finish it! Will Reynolds Flight Sim Addict

October 14, 201213 yr Author I think I had to get rid of the cargo,with a random pax load to get a 42000 lb reserve.,I think my flight was within 2 min of the real United flight. The majority of the flight.I was "in crew rest".
