What will the next Event be?

I realize it's quite a long tour but I think (in all modesty) it's a really good idea. Opinions?

Not bad Ben ... but I think my mountain range idea whops it ;)
Maybe there's a way of combining the two and cutting out the dreary wastelands of the flat northern and eastern edges. (No offence to folks living in scandanavia and eastern europe but Flight Simulator seems to think you live in a huge flat field.)
EHM-1671 Ben:
You're right Phil, I think your idea might be better than a huge round-continent tour. It would be a lot more exciting (compared to the Airmail tour) too since there are mountains as opposed to the flat expanse of the American west. But what do you other guys prefer?
I personally don't mind either way, I just want to fly another event... I would really like to fly it in a Class 4 (Fokker 70 in particular) aircraft since they're a lot faster than the old Gooneybird and I personally can stop the F70 on a dime. A class 3 aircraft would be fine as well, as long as I don't have to hover along at 120KIAS. So, don't make me beg ;).

just 12hours later, i am back and i see already 16 posts;D;D;D
Really Fast! I myself would prefer simulating historic events, something like the US Airmail Event .
Currently, I am up for the Island Express, the aircraft can be of either the Tri-motor or the DC-3 but that is just my opinion;D
EHM-1199 Philip:
Ben, if we went for some sort of trans-europe mountain route we could look to focus on planes that are able to access smaller airports while still delivering the power and speed. I can't remember what class the BaE whisperjet was in but that would be an ideal choice. If the Fokker 70 stops as well as you suggest that also would be a great choice for such an event.
As regards historical, I think we were quite lucky to have such a great piece of aviation history in the US Airmail event and actually the suitability of many historical flights for an event is questionable. Take the whole Australia idea ... it just sounds either too much for a tour or something that really doesn't take you to the most interesting parts of the world enroute.
EHM-1671 Ben:
I think I'm going to support Phil's idea for the mountain event. Sounds like fun!! ;)
