For 119 days these records held no Aerospatiale SA-341 Gazelle; N342RP broke that run on 6 October 2026. The aircraft database is the source for that type. Its transponder address, A3C641, sits in the block ICAO allocates to the United States. At 20:30 UTC, it reported a pressure altitude of 1,375 ft and 131 knots over the ground.

The aircraft database gives 1985 as the year N342RP was built. The observation began at 20:28 UTC and ran about 2 minutes. This is a first for these records only; it says nothing about how often such aircraft fly elsewhere.
