Hello Everyone,

This adventurous guy just started flying around the world in a Pipistrel Virus Equipped with a Rotax 914 turbo, and a modified fuel system carrying a total of 350 litres of fuel.


you can track his progress from his blog and "Spidertracks" tracking website.

He is a professional photographer, so if you have any places you have been dreaming of flying to, he will most likely write about it and post photos on his blog as he flies overhead at 35,00 ft, and as he visits the many different villages and cities along the way.
