Longest hits (in several categories)
Here's a list of the longest hits in several categories. In italics, I list the longest theoretically possible links, followed by the longest known so far, in bold.

20009 km Chincha Alta - Siam Reap
20004 km Córdoba (14012) - Hamilton (3206)
18821 km Christchurch (8053) - Wingene (8750) Seda - Talking Head (237 days) 2018-06-17 07:08:44

17640 km Base Dumont d'Urville (98414) - Miquelon-Langlade (97500)
09620 km Karttula (71570) - Saint-Denis (97400) Ratskin - dingchavez (548 days) 2011-05-18 06:54:00

03851 km Albufeira (8200) - Nurmes (75500) Karhu IVA - viivi14 (136 days) 2010-12-09 17:26:54
Flying over Euro Area land only:
02838 km Cabo de São Vicente (8670-390) - Osadné (067 34) (over Andorra too)
02829 km Vila do Bispo (8650-406) - Osadné (067 34)
02548 km Brezno (97701) - Amadora (2720-268) JARDO™ - Titania_eu (1157 days) 2016-10-23 12:09:10
Outside the Euro Area:
12846 km Buzău (120083) - Bahía Blanca (8107) 2019-11-18 01:19:51 (flying over the Euro Area)
08423 km Akashi (6730000) - Lviv / Львів (7907) 2017-03-26 18:55:49 (not even flying over the Euro Area)
Dead straight vertical line within the Euro Area:
03793 km Lachania / Λαχανιά (85109) - Nuorgam (99990)
02747 km Tuuri (63610) - Voula / Βούλα (16673) kirasi - loup1771 (304 days) 2013-06-11 01:00:32
Dead straight horizontal line within the Euro Area:
05301 km Eberau (7521) - Miquelon-Langlade (97500)
01252 km Brasschaat (2930) - Lublin (20-093) E-verzamelaar - alederp (38 days) 2012-05-29 16:53:29
Other categories welcome! I'm thinking of "Within the same country — for each of the Euro Area countries" (within Germany already here, within France it's the 17640 km line mentioned above), "Within places sharing the same main official language", etc.
NOTE: this is a WIP. I had broken links to most maps for theoretically possible, so I just deleted the links and started replacing them with the correct ones (only two so far, sorry).

Re: Longest hits (in several categories)
Top national hits in non-Euro Area countries (longest hit/country only; zero-km hits that, in a few cases, are the "longest" national hits have been left out):
3215 km
https://www.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=176534451 (those usernames raise an eyebrow...)
163 km
https://www.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=158523153
154 km

106 km

64 km
https://www.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=175219920
44 km
https://www.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=8265608
9 km
https://www.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=50261983
7 km
https://www.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=163045518 (both users mention a donation box at an airport but 7km apart, which seems weird)
6 km
https://www.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=141126345
2 km
https://www.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=175879701 (weird for several reasons)
Latest check: 2024/01/08 (it's a rather tedious process going through all non-Euro Area countries, checking for national hits. I've provided the last date on which this was done so nobody wastes their time doing it, as it is something that is only worth doing once every six months or there about).

Re: Longest hits (in several categories)
I updated the first post with a new longest hit.
Also, for the list of extra-Eurozone nationals, I rechecked them and here are three new ones:
112 km
https://eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=136636167
13 km
https://eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=188889005
2 km
https://eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=175879701 (weird for several reasons)
Finally, finding the longest hit outside the Euro Area would be great. Here's the longest ones I found, all from different pairs of countries:
10303 km
https://eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=193120616
9211 km
https://eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=142610911
8932 km

Re: Longest hits (in several categories)
Apart from the suspicions about the hit, but... it seems to have been entered in the same place (same city and same postal code)! Why are 2 Km of distance reported?lmviterbo wrote: ↑Fri Feb 22, 2019 5:22 am 2 km

Both users raise an eyebrow, especially the one in Argentina, who got 2 hits out of 7 notes registered on the same day... Well, so far it hasn't been deemed fake, so there it is.

If this is real, then it's a new Outside the Euro Area (not even flying over the Euro Area) record. There are, of course, concerns...

That can be a very cool game in fact.
It's not possible to check on our hitmaps if the shortest line between the two locations lies exclusively on land. This is because the lines drawn on EBT maps are not the shortest distance lines (great circles).
It is possible, however, to check it, for any specific pair of points, on one of the great circle mappers available online.
My favorite is Adam Schneider's great circle calculator at his GPS Visualizer.
My longest straight line on land is:
Lisboa → Wien
2290 km
https://pt.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=198013434 (enlarge)
Note: I'm using EBT distance (2290), even though I think it's less acurate than the one calculated by this tool (2298.7). Google Maps caulculates 2299.22.
