I believe Dieter Schmitt did a similar flight from Anchorage to Germany in the late 80's using a Beech Bonanza with tip tanks and internal fuel. It was an F33A but any modern Bonanza would do. You can fit Dolly Parton tip tanks holding 100 gallons each. There are dozens of pilots with extreme range experience in the Earthrounders club.
