I recently posted about Jerrie Mock's record-setting flight around the world. When she completed her 29 1/2 day flight that covered over 23,000 miles she became the first woman to fly solo around the world. I have been captivated by this story. Since I prefer pictures over words I decided to make a Google Map that shows the route she flew and lists each checkpoint along the route. I also provide the time it took to fly the leg and the miles flown per leg. I hope the map and my recent post drives you to your nearest library to check out the book about her flight - Three-Eight Charlie.
That map is flipping awesome! I love all the work and detail you put into it!

Just want to let you know this map is very cool, but in the copy above it you tell the folks to get the library book Three-Six Charlie, and it is indeed Three-Eight Charlie - dan
Awesome work.
