What is the record for the longest VATSIM flight?

Wondering what it'll take for me to break the record. Hoping to do KEWR-WSSS sometime using the A346 or 773(ER) and lots of coffee. Not to much of a jump as my record is a 15 hr flight from KPHX-Bandar Seri Begawan

 

Anyone know the record?

That doesn't exactly help answer the question...

 

On Topic - I don't think such a record has ever been recorded. There are just too many factors that would affect such a flight - I could easily turn on unlimited fuel and coast around the world nonstop, the only limiting factor to such a flight being the virtual pilots' mental endurance.

Okay, well, obviously people have or at least could do something crazy like EGLL-NZAA. My parameters are more completely realistic only. If it couldn't be flown in real life, it wouldn't count.

Yeah that'd be a feat. Not sure if I'll actually do it.

actually Jonathan it does dont know how active you are in the forums or social media pages, but you would be surprised how many times the subject comes up and when that specific piece of info is given, 9 out of 10 users often are not aware of it.

 

as far as the records go, stats.vatsim.net is the main stats page for the network, you wont be able to search specifically for that there though. try vataware or the other vatsim trackers. they keep records.

If I may, how does one access history of flights on VATTASTIC?

I saw a pilot fly from NZAA to EHAM via the United States. Really makes me wonder why you would bother.

VATTASTIC as far as i know doesnt do logs. i could be wrong though as i dont have an account with them, not sure if that gives more functions if you register.
