Hello,
today I did a flight from EGLL-YSSY (also named project sunrise)together with @Flying_Pencil and @Planespotterdca . Sadly both weren’t able to land but I decided to continue the flight alone. The flight was on the expert server and took me about 19:30h the departure was on the 26.11.19 21:00z and the landing was at the 27.11.19 at around 16:15z.
I hope you all enjoy the pictures I made on this beautiful flight!

I’ve started at FL330 then climbed above Dubai to FL370 via IF-A and above the beginning of Australia I climbed to FL410
I took every Gramm of fuel and I had 40 minutes remaining so something around 4,500kg left.
No, the non-stop was a one time only research flight (there has been a nonstop wit a B747 once about 30 years ago as well (I believe), but this isn’t a regular direct route.
The Qantas/BA flight LHR-SIN-SYD has been there for a while though.
