I guess when traffic is light the controller can go down and milk the cows?  Great shot.

Yes, it is, Harold. However, I suspect my next trip, London to Buenos Aires, Argentina will exceed that time.

Never!!

My intention was to blaze my own trail. However, as I write this, I just discovered their route:

1946: 15 March: British South American Airways began a regular service from London to Buenos Aires via Lisbon, Bathurst, Natal, Rio de Janeiro and Montevideo using Avro Lancastrians. These aren't mentioned in the readme.txt but it mentioned that the trip took 56 hours to get there.

And away we go!!!
