Errrr, PA39, he HAS already done it.

A ferry flight or some sort around the world is one of my must do's! However, I'd rather do it in something with a minimum of 1 turbine engine (1 turbine, because I'd ferry a PC-12 for sure, wanna come Wally?), .

At the thought of that Wally becomes a cowering dribbling sobbing inconsolable mess in the corner

Jaba, we should take the Retard Vehicle to OshKosh this year. You can whip up a ferry tank for the back seats.

Joined a ferry in a PC-12 from the factory via Prestwick - Reykjavik - Greenland - Goose to Denver. Even with a PT-6 up front, it still is only one, and if the fan up front stops... the atlantic is verrrrry co..co..cold...
