Dont you mean Glasgow (Scotland)? 

 

Other than that, seems like a nice (long...) trip. Wouldn't do it myself  :lol:

Oh my, sorry about that one! :D Yeah it's a long trip, but i got tired of flying to and from the same airports all the time, so decided to do something new :)

Haha, yeah. I tend to stick around Norway myself, not bored of it though, nice scenery out there!

I'm looking at doing another RTW this time with Yesteryears aircraft.

I always felt that the best challenging RTW flight should be done in a GA aircraft.  I mean hell, if you're gonna do it, why not enjoy the sights along the way right? :)

You can't - it's only possible to edit a post within a certain time limit.

Tehran (Iran) - 04.08.2013

I'm also doing a RTW trip, in the Realair Lancair.  I done one before in FS9, following Ewan McGregors Long way round route, a lot of fun.  This route is very interesting, especially with cruise heights always below 10'000.  I don't really see the point of a RTW in a tubeliner, kind of defeats the purpose as you don't see much from FL380!

 

Here is the route, currently flying to Estonia.  Countries in order are

 

Scotland, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Estonia, Germany, Switzerland, France, Spain, Morocco, Mauratania, Mali, Burika Faso, Togo, Nigeria, Chad, Central African Rep, Congo, Rawanda, Tanzania, Kenya, Ethiopia, Djibouti, Yeman, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Pakistan, India, Nepal, Bangladesh, Burma, Laos, Thailand, Vietnam, China, HongKong, Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, Russia, USA, Greenland, Iceland, Faroe Islands, Scotland
