777 is a good choice. Chip can you have your dad contact me Eddie [email protected]?
He must have some kind of crazy paper route.

My sincere best wishes to "old" Jack" from Uruguay, South American too old retired pilot. Fantastic boy... go ahead
What a fantastic idea jack, all the very best of luck for your flight jack,i will be trying to keep track of your flight from england and then from turkey where we fly to on may 2nd,shame this flight cant be tracked on flightaware system ,please let me know if this possible, again all the best from old england.
I hope he knows the risks going into this, some of the statements he says isn't convincing. If he closely checks the weather, brings survival gear, and stays close to land, he should be okay. June is the best time to cross the Atlantic.
