I am planning an attack on the all time distance record 

for the D2D Challenge on Sunday if the weather turns out 

as good as currently forecast. It stands at 2500nm 

currently, and I calculate that a figure of 8 round UK, 

Hebrides Orkney & Shetland mainlands and Ireland will do 

the trick! It will need rather a long time in the air 

averaging 150kts, but if the weather Gods smile and the 

donkey keeps going it might just be possible. Plan to fly 

it atFL95 apart from the lower level bit round SE England.

     Regards, David Joyce G-XSDJ (mono 914 Woodcomp 

SR3000W + purpose built, LAA approved 100litre long range 

tank)

PS the 3 planes at the top of the distance record list 

are:

  1 Beech Baron;

2. Mooney;

3. Hawk Jet!!

Hi David,



May the weather Gods and saint-Rotax be with you but I'm sure all the Europa

fellows will!
