RE: New Jumbo Variant

Thanks for all the replies. I saw the headline “New Jumbo to fly to Australia non-stop” on the BBC Ceefax news headlines, and it may also have been in a newspaper as well. I remember reading about the Qantas 747-400 which did make a non-stop flight, but I’m sure that was just to prove a record or something. Personally, I would not want such a long flight, when I went to Australia I went via LA with Air New Zealand and had a couple of days stopover, which was just right, before the 14 hours 40 minutes flight from LA to Sydney. Watching the dawn break and then flying in low over the Sydney Opera House was something I’ll never forget (we landed in Sydney at around 6:45am.)
