30,000+ feet in that little pea-shooter! I can imagine some degree of soaring was required in order to attain the altitude it took to get safely get over the top of that sucker? How awesome that must have been..

I can imagine some degree of soaring was required in order to attain the altitude it took to get safely get over the top of that sucker? How awesome that must have been.. IMO the more impressive flight during this trip was from Easter Island to NZ via the Cook Islands. This was the only refuelling stop in that leg. -- martin@ | Martin Gregorie gregorie. | Essex, UK org |
