About 6 months..............I flew around the world West to East. It was a done when ever I had a bit of spare time, though on some of the longer legs, it was auto pilot and checking in on it every now and then...............

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Longest? Maybe like 2 hours... I generally fly smaller aircraft on shorter flights, and sometimes I just practice landings and takeoffs from the same airport.  :P

I flew Toulouse to Guangzhou. A380. Can't remember how many hours it was. What I do remember, is landing in Guangzhou to learn that they didn't have any empty gates for my A380  >:(
