Hi Dave,

Can I bring back Joes Super from PHNL, its been there since 2009!

[DaveB]

I was thinking of doing that but you can have it mate

I've been concerned about the Supers as we only have 12 and 5 are off station! A couple of those have been flown relatively recently but still.. that kind of percentage isn't good

So.. you don't want to finish bringing the Mk32 back then? It's only in Halifax
Calm aires matey

LOL, I've decided I should do a mop up, so going to start with the Super... The Mk32 doiesn't realise it yet, but there will be alot of x8 involved in that flight!

[DaveB]

My god mate.. that's still brave of you I'm just getting the pencil and paper out to see how long it might take. There's nothing routed from Halifax for it yet so there are plenty of options, albeit slow ones Does FSA allow x16

Maybe we could strap it to a concorde?

[DaveB]

That'd do it

Very roughly..
CYHZ - CYQX 444.7nm 2hr 47m
CYQX - BGBW 796.8nm 4hr 59m
BGBW - BIKF 648.7 4hr 4min
BIKF - EGPK 744.1 4hr 39min

.. and from there to the nearest base, wherever that is. Without the aid of x8, realistically, that's around 5 days work. BGBW is a worry too as it's mountainous. It'd take the Mk32 a while to get high enough to get over.. that or make a nice diversion around the bottom
