Ultra Long Haul flight-Perth to Frankfurt

[applepro243]

Hey IFC! Its been a while since i did an ultra long haul flight so i decided to fly from Perth all the way to Frankfurt with the trusty B787-9. This flight from YPPH-EDDF marks the 2nd longest flight i have done (1st is from Newark to Singapore 17hrs+). Here are some pics of the flight. Enjoy!

Turns out i over reacted about the fuel consumption by setting it to MAX as i had 3hrs of extra fuel when i landed.

Great pics and even faster than the real one recently which clocked in at 16:52 hours. Great to see Qantas around, thanks for sharing!

Nice shots man. About the description of telling passengers not to carry baggage on board. Hey, that’s gotta be realistic because that would reduce the heaviness of the aircraft in which the aircraft can easily get lift once take off. And a long flight too with Qantas flying all the way from Perth, amazing.
