Range Question - B772 -v- A330
Whilst checking out the other A330 question (and photos) I noticed that QF are claiming a record for the 17000km flown by VH-EBB (A330-201) from Toulouse to Melbourne, stating this is a record for a large twin. However, Boeing claim the same for the B772 Super Ranger that did Seattle to KL in 1997.
Are they classed as the same size aircraft for this record, or are QF making claims that are dubious?
