I opened up this Flight Simulator App on my phone and put a flightplan from LAX to MNL. Holy s*** this takes forever, it's like a 13 hour flight. I am glad this plane carries a ton of fuel. Has anyone ever flew across the Pacific both in real life and or in the simulator just for fun?

After 8 hours of "flying", my plane is still in the middle of the Pacific with no land mass in sight. Since the map does not buffer, I have no idea how far I am from any countries. I have 26 QT left in the tank i have no idea what that means. This airbus is awesome.
>>
holy ****, i dont think im gonna make it. Not sure if I should go to Japan or wing it to my original destination lol.
>>
Holy shit, I am far frickin away form shore, doing a layover in Hawaii.... lol

last coords were

30° 0' 14.16" N 143° 9' 54.12" E

which was hella frickin far from Japan or the Philippines, Thank God for Hawaii popping out of nowhere.

About 30 NM from Tokyo Coastline, approaching waypoint CVC. Turns out Tokyo was closer, damn Earth Curvature you crazy.
>>
After 3 frickin turn arounds, I finally landed at Tokyo International. Fuelly refueled. I am prepping to take off to head for my final destination. As they say, any safe landing is a good landing.

it is! obviously its not as good as flight simulator on PC, but mobile phones have gone leaps now with playability. I mean you can play GTA San Andreas now on the phone.

I am headed to an island by Taiwan btw, waypoint ALC.

What app? Why the hell would you not tell us the app? What is wrong with you?
>>
I am about 30 NM from the airport in Manila, this is it, the culmination of my journey!
