The Flight that Never Wanted to Land!
Ever felt like a long road trip was dragging on forever? Well, imagine being stuck in the air for 64 days straight!
That’s exactly what pilots Robert Timm and John Cook did in 1958, setting the world record for the longest continuous flight.
Flying a modified Cessna 172, these two daring aviators took off from Las Vegas and didn’t land for over two months!
They refueled in midair, ate, shaved, and even took turns sleeping—all while staying thousands of feet above the ground. Talk about a commitment to the skies!
Would you have the patience (or the stomach) to stay airborne for that long? Let’s hear your thoughts!
