I don't believe that for a minute. An urban legend for frequent flyers. This is much more than 2749 miles per day, every day of the year. No time to do anything when you land.

It is an established fact.

The guy is in executive recruitment and flies round trip to Europe and USA virtually every week - sometimes more than once a week to interview and/or head hunt applicants for top jobs.

Get your atlas out and look where Australia is and you will possibly not make such a un-informed comment again. On last Saturday for instance I flew about 10,000 miles in a day from IAD-LAX-SYD. Round trip it is around 20,000 miles and can be done in 48 hours. Europe is further.

Ask our own B_Watson whether his annual flying is an "Urban Myth".
