Longest Commercial Airplane Flights and Crashes

This is an attempt at a complete list of all commercial passenger jetliner crashes that were airborne for the longest period of time before encountering a catastrophic event leading to the jetliners fate.

 

This list references the Wikipedia list of aircraft accidents and incidents resulting in at least 50 fatalities. Wikipedia fails to mention complete time statistics for most of the flight information. The calculation in the chart below is mostly derived from official cockpit voice recorder transcripts found online on various sites mentioned below.

 

The purpose of this research is to understand the longest flights airborne before crashing and what ultimately led the flight to a catastrophic event.

 

The list is far from complete and we hope our community will help add to the list while properly citing references.
