Australia-Singapore-Japan-Alaska-Mainland US would be my guess for stops. I don't know what the Irwin's arrangements were, but for commuting between the US and Australia, direct flights by a couple of airlines are faster, cheaper and a ****load more comfortable. For 2 or 3 hour trips within the US, the private jet would be perfect. Can you imagine 20 hours airtime across the Pacific in such a small plane with two kidlets ? You'd only do that once. -- Cheers Dave Kearton |
