What is the longest jump TAR ever done? I've been thinking about it lately. The two that come up to my mind is the Argentina - Russia one in Leg 4 of TAR5 and Moscow - Portland finale of TAR13. But are they the longest? Or they're other jump that longer than these two?
Here's are some of the longest jump I of think: (only the jump >= ~6000 miles will highlighted)
New York - Livingstone ~7550 miles (TAR1)Windhoek, Namibia - Bangkok ~ 6200 miles (TAR2)Montreaux/Geneva - Kuala Lumpur ~6300 miles (TAR3)Buenos Aires - Saint Petersburg ~8200 miles (TAR5)Calcutta/Kolkata - Auckland ~6950 miles (TAR5)El Nido - Calgary ~7000 miles (TAR5)Sao Paulo - Moscow ~7300 miles (TAR9)Muscat - Perth ~5400 miles (TAR9)
Seattle - Beijing ~5400 miles (TAR10)
Antananarivo, Madagascar - Helsinki ~5600 miles (TAR10)
La Paz - Auckland ~6950 miles (TAR13)Moscow - Portland, Oregon ~5350 miles (TAR13)
Prague - Las Vegas ~5750 miles (TAR15)
Los Angeles - Valpariso ~5600 miles (TAR16)
San Carlos de Bariloche - Frankfurt ~ 7950 miles (TAR16)Shanghai - San Francisco ~6150 miles (TAR16)Seoul - Los Angeles ~6000 miles (TAR17)Los Angeles - Sydney ~7500 miles (TAR18)Los Angeles - Taipei ~6800 miles (TAR19)Bangkok - Lilongwe, Malawi ~5000 miles (TAR19)
Lilongwe, Malawi - Copenhagen ~5000 miles (TAR19)
Brussels - Panama City ~ 5500 miles (TAR19)
Asuncion, Paraguay - Turin, Italy ~6400 miles (TAR20)Hanoi - Maun ~ 6250 miles (TAR22)There's still more the long jump. But I think the Buenos Aires - Saint Petersburg jump is the longest for the direct direction, not including the airport connection. (Like the lolzy Kuwait - Mauritius jump via London ~9000 miles in TAR10
