I’m planning on doing a RTW flight but I can’t decide what aircraft to fly, a C182 or a freeware Piper Warrior or something like that.
What do you think?

Have a look on www.group-flight.org as I think all our plans from last years round the world flight are still on there somewhere, and this years ones should be on very soon as well.

I’ve been round the World in every flight sim since FSW95 at least.
I seem to recall someone posting a set of flight plans for going round the world in FS2002 or FS2004 on flightsim.com a while ago … might be worth a look.
I’ve done my flights using mainly the Lear, Baron or 737. Anything more and all you’re likely to do is fly high and fairly fast and miss all the fun to be had by looking at the scenery below.
Last time I went on a Westerly route and tried going via Alaska and then island hopping across to Russia, which I found a bit more interesting than across the Pacific to Hawaii.
Have fun!

I did (or should I say started 😉 ) one in the Baron.

Or do it with unlimited fule settings on and do it in all at once….now thats cheating:d

neither, try an A340-500:
LHR-LAX
LAX-SIN
SIN-LHR……cheating but who cares. A plane with 15,000 mile range only requires 2 stops.
