Fairly standard stuff, though, on a bad winter's night.
The one in my book that still raises my eyebrows was the HKG-LHR which took 16:03. But it won't surprise anyone to know that that was in an A340. It was the sort of night when 13 was being used (this was Kai Tak days) even though it was the middle of the night. And things got no better as we went along.
