My longest yet

This was my longest flight yet on the CL35 and well it was nerve-racking to say the least🤣
Landed with only 82 kg of fuel.
Step climbed 390->450->470->490
Many thanks to @PaZuZu who was on approach frequency at WSSS for guiding me into Singapore before my fuel ran out!

Unless he went around, his photos tell otherwise.

well as i got lighter i continued to climb up to 490

Well that’s probably the reason you ran out of fuel.

Hmm probably yea…

I find it hard to believe that the optimum altitude could be above the service ceiling…

Well i read that someone did go to FL490 here on IFC when the aircraft got pretty light so I decided to give it a try. Anyways I climbed to FL490 when i was 10/15 mins away from TOD so don’t think it would’ve affected a lot.

Haha…. It’s amazing seeing a private Jet do a long hauls.

Wow! how did he do?
