Where and what do you fly most?

Right now in P3dv4 with ORBX North America, Vector and Global.  I'm 1/3 of the way on my flights east to west to each state capital in the continental US.   Don't know if I'll make it to Hawaii as I only fly A2A native P3dv4, and the PMDG DC6.  I haven't tried to figure out if I can make it to Hawaii from California.  Anyone made that trip in a four engine piston?

I'm pretty sure they used to make the trip in real life...

Looks like it has a range of 4000nm.  Distance from KLAX to PHNL is 2200nm.

 

EDIT:  I read on another thread that there's some controversy about how much you can trust that 4000nm figure.  Might take some more research.

Will do--thanks, also.
