Spine of Americas

I was chatting to a non glider pilot recently who seemed to think that a
tip-to-toe flight along the length of the Americas would make a cool
expedition.

Starting in Alaska and following the Rockies, crossing central America and
then picking up the Andes and Klaus Ohlmans tracks to the tip of Southern
America. Given that the total distance is some 17000 km
it would make it an epic trip over a period of a couple of months.

Any thoughts on whether this could this be done?
