Seiko Fukuoka has set a new women’s world record in Brazil. She
flew 345.6km on 20 November, beating the previous world record by more than
20km.

According to her tracklog she took off in Quixada in the north east of Brazil
and flew for a little over 10 hours. She was flying a Niviuk Icepeak 6.

The previous world record was held by Kamira Pereira who flew 324.7km on 14
November 2009.

The season in Quixada has been a good one so far, with several pilots flying
more than 400km. A team of Sol Pilots has been chasing the world record of
502km, although that has eluded them so far.

The best flying was in late October, when half a dozen pilots from the Sol Team
flew together for 460km. On the same day the longest flight of the season was
flown by Olympio Faissol – he flew 470.39km on 22 October 2012.
