Ok, fresh from the success of a relatively short Leg 1 completion to bring us across the North Atlantic to Gander in Newfoundland, we are going to be traversing across Canada before heading slightly North again into Alaska and on into Siberia in Legs 2 and 3. This route was chosen becuase of the lack of range in the 737, which meant a trip across North America, and across the Northern Pacific onto Hawaii wasn't an option; so, because of this I'm going to be staying in Canada. Maybe in a later trip I will explore some of South America in an aircraft with greater range. Leg 2 will be split up into 3 segments; segment 1 from Gander (CYQX) to Thunder Bay (CYQT), segment 2 from Thunder Bay to Kelowna (CYLW), and the final segment from Kelowna to Yakutat (PAYA) in Alaska. All are within the relatively modest range capabilities of the 737-436, so I guess all that remains is for me to get this leg underway.
