I realize that a pair of Cub Cruisers flew around the world postwar, but a J-3/L-4 is something else entirely. How do you suppose he would do it? The water route simply looks impossible (he made a couple of 500 NM water crossings on his way to Australia) so I;m betting he'd travel through China and Russia. Is that feasible? An ultralight pilot has already done it through Siberia. He ran into a problem trying to get to Greenland from Canada, however, since Canadian regulations required such flights to have an IFR rated pilot, and the aircraft had to be IFR equipped. http://www.copanational.org/non-memb...newsDec02A.htm |
