That's pretty impressive and I'm sure with the VIP layout inside it wasn't a hardship for the passengers. No doubt a relief crew for that sector as well. I suppose that once the weight of passengers and first/business class seats and hold cargo are taken away from the equation, most new-generation aircraft's range would be vastly improved. Does this example have extra fuel tanks to cover the long sectors that it's been designed for ?
