Taxi for Jones!



Now, whats the score here?

Can Barry just come back home and try later, leaving the autogyro in situ?

Does he have to start all over again? (mileage effectively banked)

Can Barry + A/Gyro return, then when ready position to India and carry on?

Funny that when I popped into the GE Ops earlier this month, this very scenario was mentioned. "Halt the attempt, come back home and then carry on later."
mmmm....when does that class as fail ?


Do you have to declare a postponement before you 'have' to stop, in order to be able to carry on?

Shame that Richard Branson didn't think of it. "Right, we'll ditch her here and come back next month, launch off the side of a boat and claim the record!!!
Now then, who do I claim a postponement to again?


In the words of a good friend of mine....
