I just can't my head around flying out over the Atlantic for that
particular flight. The great circle is 453 while a dogleg over KSSI is 473. That 11 mins in my putt putt. There would need to be an island full of the scantily clad or something to motivate me. John Doe wrote: "Maule Driver" wrote in message m... I assume you are referring to V3. V3 is 5 miles max from the shoreline between SSI and PBI. from 7 or 8k up, that is a 5:1 glide. I fly that route in my Maule if winds are acceptable. I think the original poster may have been thinking V437. I don't do that one. Actually I was thinking more direct from RDU to TIX which takes you well east of V437.
