  ;D;D Hey, Knold could you give more details on that flight? ;D ;D

I understand that the MD83 record was hold by a AEROPOSTAL MD83 in 1988 Long Beach LGB to Caracas MIQ, 3618 Miles Nonstop. That was a new airplane on its delivery flight.

No, but 30 tonnes of fuel does the trick

No, I am afraid the record is with Finnair and Capt. Pekka Niemi, who flew Montreal-Helsinki nonstop 3,920 nm in November 1985 with his crew.

Longest was probably this week as I finally won the set and match at 10-8 in the tiebreaker.  I had match point at 6-5, 7-6, 8-7 and finally at 9-8 to win.  Going 18-16 like you did would have made my nerves a complete wreck.
