Aussie123 Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 I found this interesting today. 14,683 kilometres. The flight also marks a milestone moment for Darwin Airport, which will become the first airport in Australia — and one of very few in the world — to have received non-stop flights from all six permanently inhabited continents.

Rodger Pettichord Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Quite a feat! Bet the flight crew was as glad to be home as the rescued passengers. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boetie Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Managed to time it right and see it over the ice cap on flightradar 24. That would've been a thrill flying over the Antarctic in daylight 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stillwater Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Interesting flight, I wonder which alternate airports they had on the plan.

At least in P3D I would also expect severy scenery errors in those areas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
