G650 on a long 10-hr flight to no-where . . .
It's not every day you see a flight overfly SEA, SFO, LAX, PHX, SLC, ABQ, and DEN all in one flight. Sorry, this one doesn't spell-out anything. Come on Gulfstrea; get creative next time :) (flightaware.com) और अधिक...

Thanks for the scoop Elton. I hadn't heard about this before - very cool.
I think the point trying to be made was that Gulfstream didnt create any cool 'drawing' with their flight track. In the past, Boeing has done some cool ones.
would love to see an example of Boeing's if you happen to have one saved.

And we won big time
I question the accuracy of those Boeing flights. Images are easy to fake.
@Chris B, I can assure you of the accuracy of those images. I have been a member of this forum for 4 years now and from time to time, you get to see these 'tracker images' come up. It's good to be skeptical though!

Most of the times, those are 4 to 6 hours flights.
Sometimes, depending on the customer, they ask for a longer flight.
We just did ours last month and it was over 9 hours in a 550. Starting in SAV, going all the way to the west coast, up to ORD, then back to SAV.
This is the opportunity to check all the systems, in the cockpit, galley and cabin.
Also, it's filled this way, so if there is any problem, the airplane is close to LGB, ATW or SAV (mfg facilities).
