There’s no practical way to search for such threads, even after we agree on what constitutes “recent enough last post”. And what constitutes a “zombie”; how often does the thread have to be refreshed? But here’s a thread that beats yours. This thread dates from 2011 and gets multiple new posts almost every day. > [@The Great Ongoing Aviation Thread (general and other)](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-great-ongoing-aviation-thread-general-and-other/600499): > > This is it. Your new home for discussion of General Aviation. Anything and everything about GA. Questions! Answers! Experiences! Bring it all to the table! There have been [a number](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=628292) of [threads](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=628292) [recently](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=624956) [centering on GA](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=627831) that have been the inspiration for this one. I suppose an argument can be made for this to go in Cafe Society, and I’m open to the idea. At any rate, my hope is that this thread will grow and always be a place people can come to for discussing GA. Now have at it! --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/is-this-the-longest-running-thread/1016314)._
