    RTW 2015 Practice 2

    Right to keep the "momentum" up, let's get a 2nd practice going.

    Might I suggest the following:
    1.1 full stop landing in every European country west of Russia,excluding Iceland and the little ones without airfields(Andorra,San Marino,Monaco etc) & Turkey
    2.Any allowed aircraft
    3.max leg length 350nm
    4.Start from and return to Zurich Intl LSZH

    ALSO

    As a route planning practice, I have mapped out one suggested route,see below. On http://www.gcmap.com/ it is 7255 miles (6309 nm according to http://skyvector.com/)
    Im certain there will be a shorter route, so,your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to find a shorter one. Countries can be in any order you choose.
