Solo around Australia

[red750]

Seventeen year old year 12 student Rose Donald landed at Essendon Fields today to complete a solo round Australia flight in her Cessna 172 raising money for Little Wings, a charity providing air transport for country kids requiring medical treatment, and building hours towards her commercial pilot's licence. She has sent documentation of her trip to the Guinness Records organisation to claim the record for the youngest female to complete the trip solo.

This would be a great challenge for a group of RAA class pilot/aircraft to do (not suggesting that GA pilot/aircarft, of similar performance should not participate).

 

Safety in numbers. Collaborative planning. Possible cost reductions for bulk purchases eg accommodation. All round FUN??

 

Anyone interested?

Yes I'll tag along but I think I'll be joining at the halfway point 😉. Just wait until I get the 912ulf installed or you'll be leaving me behind.

 

After thinking about it for a minute, we could leave at the same time and land together at The Oaks.

Flying as a group, while you are in the Air is Not particularly safe. Nev
