Oh my goodness!! That's a huge flight! Seeing the flight path just made me involuntarily laugh in amazement! And you've done it 7 times? What setup do you have to be comfortable for that long?!

actually more. Thiese days I have done it 3 times. There is a clip with my landing in Media.It is on A/p and F/d. Also I check it. Is not so long. For 777 is 14 hours only.

For me a verry long flight is OMDB-SCCI. This is 19 hours period. It's much bigger, we count 5 hours more in it than NZAA. And it's unreal.

Thanks for the videos and explanations, but you're running 777-200F, i tried to load that plane on FG but shows empty, no plane, i can only start the simpler versions of 777-200 and 777-300

Verry good. I will help yuo with the guidance. During the flight. Do you have facebook? Was think to talk live during the essential parts, like grounds, T/o and APP and landing.
