Greetings, Ron, et all,

 

Is this image new? I must have missed your announcement! Congratz, now you just can do any circumnavigation of our globe anytime you want! Almost routine!

 

Please let me know when you plan to do the next one, I love to track the balloon from this side of the pond :-)

What's fascinating is the amateur aspect of long duration balloon flights. Observing global wind patterns, comparing actual to predicted flight paths, and seeing what countries have participating APRS I-gate stations.

Though not technically circumnavigating the world, need to fly along equator or go from northern to southern hemisphere. I think this is encouraging other amateurs to do the same, and others have.

I attached a picture of the flight path
