This is the most comprehensive check for an airplane. It is also known as a Heavy Maintenance Visit (HMV). This check occurs approximately every 4-5 years. This is the check that, more or less, takes the entire airplane apart for inspection. This requires even more space and time than all other checks, and must be performed at a maintenance base.

The commercial airplane with the furthest range is Boeing's 777-200LR with a range of 17,340 kilometers. This surpassed Airbus's A340-500HGW which has a range of 17,000 kilometers.

There is a limit to non-medical liquids that can be carried through a security checkpoint. Small quantities of toiletry articles CAN be carried- but the largest single container may not be more than 3 ounces, and all liquids, gels and aerosols must fit in a single 1 qt ziplock plastic baggie. You will need to remove the baggie from your suitcase, and send it through the xray machine. See the link below. PS- please take it easy with the perfume BEFORE the flight. Too much fragrance can be overwhelming in a small place.
