I used to operate various parts of this flight in the late 80s on a 741. At the time is was the longest air route in the world routing LHR-ANC-TYO-HKG-CMB-SEZ (or was it MRU?)-JNB and v.v. As there were other services to all the various stops the crews did only part of the trip. I remember doing the NRT-HKG bit and HKG-CMB and vv. I also remember operating CMB-SEZ?-JNB and then returning via NBO to LHR. By the time I did it there were only 2 services a week and it stopped soon afterwards.

There were full traffic rights on all sectors (except, I guess, for the tech stop in ANC).
