   The Around the World Flight in a King Air is a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. Owner Mickey Russell has long known what most pilots find out the hard way: traditional flight training and time building is slow, frustrating, unnecessarily redundant and boring; good luck being able to do it in a turbine aircraft. The best way to learn is to focus on the process of learning, away from the distractions of day-to-day life. Military, airline, corporate and government flight operations all train on a full-time basis. In fact, the only segment of aviation that doesn't train full time is general aviation.
Multi Turbine Engine Time Building while flying around the world in a King Air In February 1996 Mickey Russell helped former Astronaut Pete Conrad (Apollo 12) and Phil Thayer fly a Lear 35 around the world. (The Lear now hangs from the ceiling at Denver International Airport). He was responsible for portions of the ground logistics, on-air media reports and ATC logistics of the world record flight. He was also in charge of a concurrent simulated flight following Pete and Phil on their flight. Mr. Russell was inspired by this ultimate aviation adventure. In preparing for the world record flight, he discovered that only a small percentage of pilots have ever flown around the world (fewer than 300), making it one of the rarest completed adventures known. In comparison, there have been over 1200 successful climbs on Mt. Everest per year. In 2004, Mr. Russell started researching aircraft, routes, gas prices, landing fees, navigation fees, handling fees, ease of travel in different countries, as well as several other factors involved in coordinating a regular round the world flight for pilots. In some places, he found fuel that cost over $95 per US gallon, $1,500 landing fees and several other "gotcha factors" of flying around the world. Russell Aviation's goal was to find the cheapest and safest route around the world. We have found that the route is always changing (almost daily) -- we will always be changing our route to maximize the fun and minimize the costs.

Cheap time building in a standard piston vs. Around the World Turbine Time Building You can always find someone offering cheap multi-engine flight time in their old Piper Apache or Beech Duchess for rock bottom prices. But you get what you pay for: old equipment and just flying around a small area, getting bored after the third or fourth day and risking the probability of maintenance problems away from the base and having to pay for extra hotel, food and sometimes the maintenance costs to get back home. In a turbine aircraft, such problems are very rare. If you want to stand out in the crowd with Premium Cabin Class TURBINE Multi-Engine flight time in a pressurized aircraft, then ours is the program for you. Whether you are wanting to fulfill that lifelong dream or just time building (or both), contact us today about our round the world multi-engine program.
