William - my worst personal Europa endurance test was right-seat in Tim
Houlihan=99s G-BZTH when I drank a bottle of water while hanging
around waiting for his flight plan to mature - and then omitted to make
a pre-takeoff rudder inspection. The flight was only 2 hours but it
seemed a lot longer! I could not persuade Tim to deviate from his flight
plan for a comfort stop.
Attached is a plot of a longer flight in the same aircraft which was
MUCH more comfortable, thanks to better preflight actions. I can=99t
remember how much fuel was left at landing, but we were both comfortabe
with it. 407.32 statute miles = 353.95 nautical miles, flight time
3:20.
