        This is an incredibly important event. A visionary undertaking by #Qantas to link the UK with Australia in a single flight. May Melbourne-Heathrow be with us within a decade. Geoffrey Blayney’s “Tyranny Of Distance” coined almost 50 years ago is receding for the Australians

        Sydney-Chicago follows on from Sydney-Dallas and Sydney-Houston. Las Vegas and Denver and Atlanta can’t be too far away. And then NYC ... maybe into LaGuardia first as it’s a bit closer to Australia than JFK 😊

        Ergh. As a regular long haul flier from Australia to London I have to say 24 hours in a tin can is my definition of hell.

        Not a lot of leeway for head winds etc. Possible there will be lot of unscheduled stopovers in case of bad weather for refueling.

        14,500km = 17 hours #Qantas #Perth to #London fantastic progress in #aviation. And to match this feat on the roads...4th August 2017 M5 Taunton Somerset 36 Miles (58km) = 15 hours UK’s worst traffic jam!

        I hope this is successful, I hate landing in foreign airports, then getting back on again more than once.

        15 hours at the In-Flight workstation - should get some work done. Movies & Youtube will be the thing to do.
