That's a great idea, Anne. Even with long range tanks, they'll have to stop for refueling in Bermuda, I like guests. I sure hope we don't lose you in the Bermuda Triangle, Shawn.

Cheers,

I'm afraid that unless they've perfected a way for air-to-air refueling for a Cessna 172...that we'd end up swimming a good deal of the way!

Come on Shawn, live a little, it's only 700 miles. The 172 has a good glide ratio and you'd have a tailwind, maybe you'd have to swim a little but not a lot.

My son might be in the area. He is with a NATO group this time. They did tell us that much. At least one aircraft carrier, Beale.
