Boeing Business Jet II

EHM-0948 Bruno:
Hello people,

I made a flight with the Boeing Business Jet II from Lisbon to Venezuela (SVMC) and crashed :) ...

Crashed because the airplane run out of fuel...

My question is, did I made something wrong, or the airplane is not "made" to do so long range flights ?
I made a cruising speed of 270 knots, FL330.

Thanks,
Bruno Falcão

I guess you used the Flight Logger program, or the Offline database. Those old timetables contained many impossible flights. I have to say though, when you create a flightplan you should check your aircraft  performance if it fits to that range. If not you should make a refuel stop somewhere in the middle of the route.

The new timetables probably do not contain impossibly long flights.

Sound like somebody have forgotten to update his flight logger or check the on-line timetabel

When I am doing long-haul flights. I allways stop in somewhere exotic. On your way to Venezuala, you could have stopped in the netherlands Antilles. You know, that legendary airport.
