I was foiled in my attempts as I don't have the flight numbers recorded in my spreadheet. Just the date and origin / destination airports.

Oldest sector recorded: TMC (LHR-CPT on 7th Feb 1999)
Shortest average sector distance*: chris1979 (284 miles)
Longest average sector distance*: Tits McGhee (3317 miles)
I've got the fifth highest total. Interesting to note that the top five flyers account for 3 million of the 12.5 million miles flown!
(* where number of sectors > 10)

Would it be possible to add Eastern Airways to the list of airlines? T3 are certainly my next most frequent airline to BA, and the most likely cause of my occupancy of the Terraces lounge at BHX ...

Come on guys and gals we only need a few more J bookings to out do those Y fellows.
Have you figured out what your percentage of the total miles is?

I thought it just indicates that you haven't learnt to play this FT game thing very well yet. Keep trying you will get there ^ Besdies I did my bit for the economy stats. Last year I flew 9 sectors in Y and 3 of those were not UK domestic flights.
