Long time listener, first time caller... :)

That's great news!  It must have been fun to fly and accomplish that long flight!  Imagine the free space on that aircraft to entertain themselves... "Oh, I feel like looking out the right window now!"  :)

Here was Boeing's article about the flight test (with pictures!):

...and their news release (less interesting) at:

Anyone heard any ATC transmission between this B777-200LR ?  Any archives here may have the voice of this historical flight?
