Standard Class / National Distance to Goal Record
http://ssa.org/members/badgesandrecords/RecordTable.asp
448.24mi Fritz Seger 8/29/1987 Not to diminish Fritz Seger's fantastic flight but, I would have thought this record would have been surpassed on some of the ridges in the east by now. Is going for this record unappealing to a lot of pilots?

Look at the flight below it. 503.39mi Carson Gilmer 7/7/1973 Why is this not the national record for distance to a declared goal? Carson Gilmer 7/7/1973
