bohica Posted May 22, 2003 Report Posted May 22, 2003 Hi Chuck. Well it wasn''t non-stop by a long shot, but once did ZV-QB-KL-WK-DF-YT-QX-WK-KL-ZV once. 13.1 block hours. That''s gotta be some kinda record for the F-27. Quote

Swingline Posted May 23, 2003 Report Posted May 23, 2003 5.5 hours in an SGS 1-26; barely long enough for Silver C duration, but it was the best that I could manage. I believe the unofficial duration record was established by a Hungarian fellow in Hawaii, also in a 1-26. As I recall, it was approximately 36 hours. The FAI stopped recording official duration records many decades ago, because of safety concerns. Then there was that crazy record (100 days(!) or something like that) established in a Cessna in Las Vegas back in the 1950s or 60''s. Of course, that kind of stunt doesn''t require much real skill, just a lot of gas and oil, and some tricky arrangements for food, water and sanitation. Quote
Demon AESOp Posted May 26, 2003 Report Posted May 26, 2003 Around 12.5 in an Aurora. Flying around in circles has never been more boring. Quote
Commodore64 Posted May 28, 2003 Report Posted May 28, 2003 My record was from Weagamow to Windigo! I logged 13.5 hours one day... did I mention each leg was a .2 or .3? Quote
Guest sharky Posted May 29, 2003 Report Posted May 29, 2003 10 hrs slouched in a jetranger from ywg to ykf. Just after I got my license. Man was my butt sore....for days. Just coming out of school the longest ride, of course was maybe 2-3 hrs. Quote
