Human ‘Guinea Pigs’ Prepare to Board Non-Stop London-Sydney Flight

Human 'guinea pigs' prepare to board non-stop Qantas Dreamliner research flight from London to Sydney

Human guinea pigs are lining up to trial an ultra-long-haul Qantas research flight between London Heathrow and Sydney.

Passengers will board a Boeing 787 Dreamliner at London Heathrow tomorrow (November 15, 2019) that will then fly non-stop to Sydney – a distance of 17,800km (11,060 miles).

The flight will take around 19-and-a-half hours in total.

This flight will be only the second time in history that a commercial airline has flown direct from London to Sydney.
