Inspired by Tipster and Mr Esselbach I have started my own round trip.  I have set the date to 18th April 1933 (My Dads birth date) and am embarking on an historic voyage......

The aircaft I have chosen is the Felixtowe F2a by Stewart Green.  Thanks for a great 'plane Stewart.

1. Leaving Southampton, bound for, well, Southampton eventually.  First stop Cork in Eire.

4.  Climbing sloooooowly to 3000 Feet ASL

5. Gratuitous wing shot.

292 Miles to Cork at 80Kts IAS, it's going to be a long journey.

When we were comparing certificates you posted that Round the World from FS2000, and I thought "What the hell."

I've made it as far as Cork, 700 miles to Iceland LOL :D
