How far did you fly?

Mine was from Newark to Singapore which was 8,200nm at least
It could've been the Sydney to London flight which was 9,100 nm at least, but the computer crashed on final approach and for some reason, I can't load my saved flight up again.
Love the Airbus A380. It's huge!

Yeah I know. Either I would fly the same route again or try to find a longer route maybe.

Yesterday, I made a longer flight from Buenos Aires to Taipei in an EVA Air Airbus A380-a 10,000nm journey over Antarctica! I was in a rush so at some point i used the time compression up to 128X which i turned off the autopilot and it eventually led to my cancellation of my IFR plan. I was so in a hurry that when I landed, I forgot to set the autobrakes. Because I changed the fuel flow code in the aircraft.cfg so low, I only had 72% of fuel left when I landed! I bet I could fly around the world non-stop with this plane!
