Wolrd Record breaking flight recreation June 14th - 15th

Featured Replies

Hello there. It;s been a while since I posted an event but I was thinking it would be fun to do that world record breaking flight that was done when Boeing was testing the 772 ER. The flight is from Hong Kong (VHHH, Or VHHX if you want an added twist and you have the scenery and skills to pull it off) to London Heathrow (EGLL). The trick is we will be flying Eastward instead of westward. We will cross the Pacific, the continental United States and the Atlantic before touching down at Heathrow some 23 hours later. Here is the flightplan:

Her eis a linl to an article about the real life flight: http://www.boeing.com/news/releases/...r_051110g.html

It's all nonstop and was done a few years ago in real life and I also did the flight in MS and posted about it here at the time.

If you think you would like to join in, and I am hoping that you would like to do this, please post here or send me a private messsage. I'll be Using FS9 but you can use which ever you feel beter at.  I would like this flight to kick off my Summer. I am planning on starting this on Friday June 14 setting up at 10 pm CST (04:00 Zulu)

Looking forward to hearing from some of you

Anson.
