That's a loooong test flight considering the previous were around 02:30.

It sure was, Greg. VH-OYQ did very long racetrack patterns just to the north of XFW and crossed into the Netherlands a few times. It travelled 1,947 miles on the test flight, according to FlightAware.

[Greg Hyde]

Likewise, I did the same.

Something must of went wrong during the flight to add an extra 01:45
