200+ knots... ...!

Bleedin Norah, Jimbo!

There's nothing in the way of GA Piston Props in my Hangar which will maintain those speeds continuously for 2+ hours without exploding!... ...!

Even my trusty Baron 58 will be running flat-out over the whole distance, with a risk of trashing both my motors... ...!

My Mechanic is not a Happy Chappy...I can tell by the glum look on his face, and by the 5 gallons of spare engine oil he is carrying!..... ...!

Paul...2+ hours @ 200+ knots?....Just studying my Aircraft Insurance documents again........ 8-)...!

PS...Just out of interest....why is it still called Aussie tour when it's in Alaska?

2 Hours was far beyond my limited concentration.

So, not wishing to be deafened by my twin Teledyne Continental engines roaring flat-out, I spent the first hour watching the intrepid flight simmers on my FS-Navigator Radar, whilst tinkling the ivories on my piano, and joined my Chums later on, for the remainder of the Tour in the usual fun flight.. 8-)...!
