Putting its range to good use it seems. San Fran to Hong Kong (Kai Tak I’d imagine) seems the longest when I looked at great circle distance.
Was the return via Bangkok or Singapore?
United did the JFK-NRT route using the -200 with the -7R4G2 motors. I’m guessing that pushed the limits.
Wonder how the numbers compared between using that and the SP on a similar leg?

The good old days as they say. I bet they served cocktails as well. Gotta make 14+ hours flights worthwhile..
