As of today 7011 has 35,076.36 hrs and 32,707 cycles, but it's not the highest time airframe. 7018 is the winner with 35,243.31 hrs and 32,444 cycles. The original airframe limit was 40,000 hrs, but with I think Bomabardier has increased it to 60-80,000 hrs. I really don't see them flying that long as far as airline operators go.
