Routing

With the maximum range and fuel capacity of my 737-800W noted (3,010nm & 26,020Litres) I set about with an atlas to plan my route:

As I mentioned in the introduction the route is to be split into 4 legs:

Europe
Americas
Africa
Asia

(click on the area to view the route or here for the complete route)

95710nm and 201hrs 30mins flight time. Wow! That sounds a lot. The flight time will prbably be another 15% on top of that as the flight times are based on 475KTS crusing speed, Then I still have taxi, runway holding, climb, descent, landing, go-around, taxi (again) and turnaround time to add on.

I will be setting dates and times for my flights about a week before and a flightplan will be available for viewing. Until then enjoy!
