Good points -- I'll gather some info on the Faroes and see about some
shorter hops. I also fly an Aircam, and I think it would be great to fly
to Iceland and Greenland (but not necessarily in that order).
WOW! I knew that an Air Cam had long legs but good grief, fly one
across the big pond? Just a back of the envelope reply: How long
would that take? How much range and endurance does an Air Cam have?
I know they have been flown across the Gulf of Mexico from Florida to
Cancun.
What an adventure that would be.

P.S. your original post - it is a very interesting site and I
enjoyed reading what you had to say.
I have a friend who flew a T-Craft L-2 from California to israel. He
actually landed on the Greenland glacier when it climbed faster than he
did -- turned around, took off and flew around the tip of Greenland.
His L-2 is probably the best-equipped L-2 in the world!
