a bunch of guys are flying around the world in a full size 747-400 simulator, their website and webcam can be found at www.worldflight.ozflight.com.au

theyre raising money for the Royal Flying Doctors service in outback australia.

they are going to be flying using real people to provide other traffic and air traffic controll using Flightsim 2000/2002 and 2004 and the freeware "Advanced Simulated Radar Client" on www.vatsim.net network.

progress and other air traffic can be viewed at http://www.vatsim.net/data/atcapplet/ada2jar.html on a world map. The charity worldflight is flying untill Sunday under the callsign QF25.

Are they going to attempt to penetrate Chinese and Soviet airspace at low level while broadcasting fake B-52 radar singles?
