I once flew the exact route taken by the infamous Maurice Kirk when he flew the London-Sydney air race of 2001 in his Piper Cub G-KIRK.

When I crossed Afrika: North Algeria to South Afrika. IN A GRAND CARAVAN! I had the comp running for 3 dayes. I used the auto pilot on the long runns, but I was always present in the room. Exept when I had to get a snack. The comp was still runnig when I slept, but I had the plane parked at an Airport.  I have screens of it. If anyone whants to see them, Ill post them in the freeware section...

My longest trip was a recreation of the John Travolta round the world goodwill trip. I started out of KLAX to Auckland, Sydney,Melbourne, Perth, Singapore, Hong Kong, Tokyo, then across to Paris, Frankfurt, London, Rome, New York, then back to LA. It was done over a period of months, actually starting on FS2002, then transferring to FS9 ACOF when I purchased it. It was  done in the 707-320, painted in Qantas colours. All flights were planned with FS Nav, and flown in real time .
