Cheers guys 😀
Verrrry nice Lance 😀
Sliver Bullet looking mightily fine!
I thought of popping over to MAN today, but the forecast made my mind swing the other way 😮
So despite the fact that i thought up the idea when i was drunk, my word i enjoyed it! The major factor was the worldwide network that Star Alliance carriers offer!
I flew many airlines, sadly not all, but i touched bmi, Air Canada, United, Ted, Air New Zealand, ANA, Asiana, Thai, Singapore, Austrian/Lauda, and Lufthansa, which isn’t bad at all 😀
I kept a log of my flights via the data on the FMC, and i clocked up 36759 Miles in 11 days! :dev2:
The map below is a superb graphical description of my travels

So, it was an excellent way to end 2006. I hope you enjoyed the shots!
So, where to OneWorld fly to?……………………………….

RTW COMPLETED!
So there we are! Entered UK airspace about 1850 Local, and touched down on UK soil in Manchester ar 1920!!
As it was night time, and ATC online was everywhere, i didnt get much chance to take shots, and i forgot to save the two FRA-MAN shots, which i flew the “Lu” A319 😡
Ah well, on with the last two flights! Flew VIE-FRA in an Austrian A319
Conditions were just the same as i when i landed 2hrs earlier, so decided to take no shots! But here’s me on the RNAV approach to FRA!
Then some nice views from the side.



And then, just one shot of the final leg, with me parked up on stand 21, back at MAN!

Summary next!

Sweet there mate!
I didn’t know that Pete Max was still about!
So here we go! The Last shots from me, on this worldwind Star Alliance RTW trip!
If you include last nights SIN-ATH flight, 4 flights flown or to fly today.
Initially i have the SIN-ATH-VIE shots for you!
So for the final time i load my 744 for this 11hr flight!
After my alarm went off at 8am, i was just reaching Top of Decent, lucky!!
So some shots for you of my landing


Then it was the 1st of 3 short flights to complete my trip, 1st was the Vienna leg, using a Lauda aircraft
Climbing out, this 736 really can climb!
And for the ONLY time on this trip, an Autoland was used :p C’mon, it was rubbish visabillity!
Nice view of the threshold of 29, and its lights
Parked up, at the terminal!
Flying VIE-FRA now, and later FRA-MAN, and it will then be all over!
Cheers

I sure hope so mate! Would be nice!!
Cheers for that, happy new year to you!
