It is really sad, but history is littered with the wreckage of adventurers who made bad choices. I feel for his family.

Sad indeed...I must say that when I heard of this attempt about a month ago, I did question his departure at this time of the year. In particular his planned arrival in eight weeks to the North of Australia, where it could be expected that there would still be a very active monsoon trough, as there is now, complete with two active cyclones. That certainly would have been a challange also..............................................................................024_cool.gif.7a88a3168ebd868f5549631161e2b369.gif

I know Martin was aware of the Aussi wet season

 

Trips of that size & distance are near enough impossible to plan on getting the best flying conditions for everywhere on the route. Right time in one area will put you at the wrong time somewhere else.

 

Cheers
