The delivery flights for easyJet on the -700 depart from Boeing Field, go up through Canada over Kelowna, Hudsons Bay past Churchill, , Iqaluit, Sondestrom, Keflavik, Belfast, and into Luton on a fairly northerly route. The one I did took 9 hours 32 minutes direct. Since none yet have gone astray on a delivery flight, must be someone else using the callsign!!!

Regards,

The Colonel.

Manual Reversion & Colonel Klink - Are the aircraft standard or are temporary tanks fitted to extend range?

The airrcaft is absolutely standard, it went into service a few hours after we arrived when fitted with some extra kit.

I may be slightly out, but I think the record is about 50 minutes from landing post delivery to loading passengers for first revenue flight. It is in absolutely standard fit.
