What is the longest
 
Free flight you have ever made in real time, ie from take off to landing? I think for me around 30 mins;)

I've made 260 miles, roughtly one hour, via 7 waypoints namely

Starting Maidstone arriving Hawkinge via

Wilmington 32 miles
Dieppe 73 miles
Poix Nord 40 iles
Barely 30 miles
Tranecourt 19 miles
Colembert 25 miles
Wissant 13 miles
Hawkinge 27 miles

Flying 20'000 ft by heading / watch, no major problem.

didnt initially take off, but the longest flight ive done was the free flight that starts you north of salisbury, south to the coast, hooked left and followed the coast up to dover, all the way round the coast and into thames to london, then climbed out south again and flew all the way to the edge of the map to where i was hoping to see paris :D map finishes a few miles short i found out lmfao :D

Along the way i stopped to take photos next to stonehenge, buckingham, trafalgar, westminster. was hoping to get the eiffel tower, but that was a fail :D im not too sure how long the flight lasted, but was fun :D :D

Later when clod is worth the time, I'm looking forward to doing a few round trips in a 109 from the Calais region to London and back, with a bit of a fight in between.

Longest flight I did was in a 110 prior to last official patch, burned almost all 4 tanks flying online; just over 2 hours.

Doom and I had a 90 minute sortie hunting trains on ATAG dedicated flying 110's on the deck.

We took off near Calais and flew to Dover at wavetop altitude before following the rail lines northerly past Maidstone. I think this was just last week.

Roughly 30 min before getting shot down online.

Does old IL2 count? :)

I took part as reds and flew a Hurricane. We were flying high CAP so my flight took the longest to form up at 15,000 feet. I was the last airborne by about 30 seconds. Total time to get to station: 30 minutes. Time on station: 45minutes. Flight home plus minor free flight 45 minutes. Landing on reserve: Priceless. These are approximate times so I don't know how accurate it is but felt pretty good afterwards.

With full tank?

TomcatViP 11-05-2011 01:43 PM

in CoD or in RL ?

If you are asking abt CoD I can stay aloft for more than an hour in the Hurri, 109 or 110. Flying high obviously ;)

Stealth_Eagle 11-05-2011 04:06 PM

Full tank was at start. Felt pretty good to complete it.

Did you find any? as far as i know Bliss and the other mission builders don't have any trains running on the map due to some gremlins! can't wait till they are working, Me loooves train busting in a 110!!!

P.S with regard to the OP's question, i quite regularly fly 1hr missions in the 110, some times 1 1/2hrs, well that is if the laucher failure demons let me ;)

That sortie in particular was a while ago, so no we didn't find any.

I have flown the E-4 until it ran out of gas. Departed Sempy. Don't remember how long it was but it was a good while.
