Yes, teams flew from the Lake Hood airport to Trapper Creek with Rusts Flying Service. The Rust family owns several businesses up there, and the K2 seen in the cap is one of them. I've been trying to find the runway in the cap, but no luck so far; it doesn't seem to match Talkeetna or Trapper Creek. If anybody wants to help out, the more the merrier; grab a spot and dig in.

LadyC at TWOP gives a report of another sighting in Perth, Australia...

***"I'm new to this AR Board.

I had lunch with some friends today and one of them spotted 2 of the Racers at the Woodside Building which is on St George's Terrace, in Perth Western Australia. I don't know what date that was but judging by the dates given for when they where at Rottnest, I guess it may of been around that time.

I'm so annoyed that I didn't see anything. Oh so close ..."***


I don't know what they would have done at the building -- maybe some extreme window washing? :cocky:

It looks basically like the whole building is glass. Maybe they were just passing by... anyway, here's the link to the Woodside Building website. If you search the site a little bit, you can find some other pics of the building.

Haven't updated the route speculation in a while... maybe something like this?

EP1: Denver (Red Rocks) (11/7) to Sao Paulo, Brazil (bridge, airstrips) (11/7-9??)
EP2: Sau Paulo to Brazil/South America destination 2 (spec based on mileage) (11/10-11??)
EP3: Brazil/South America destination 2 to Segesta, Sicily, Italy (ruins) (11/12-14??)
EP4: Segesta to Corinth, Greece (diving into canal) (11/15-16??)
EP5: Corinth to Moscow, Russia (St. Basil’s, tomb of the unk. soldier, ballet) (11/17-18??)
EP6: Moscow to UNKNOWN (spec based on mileage/dates) (11/19-21??)
EP7: UNKNOWN to Perth/Rottnest, Australia (11/22-24) (newspaper, Woodside building)
EP8a: Perth/Rottnest to Darwin, Australia (11/25) (newspaper/sighting) TBC
EP8b: Darwin to Adelaide, Australia (sighting 11/26)
EP9: Adelaide (11/26) to Lopburi, Thailand (elephants, monkey festival)
EP10: Lopburi (11/27-28??) to Tokyo (11/29-30??) (shopping district, Mt. Fuji)
EP11: Tokyo to Anchorage (12/1-2) (sighting, red plane)
EP12: Anchorage to Denver (12/3)

I think the number of locations is pretty close based on dates, but mileage-wise, we are missing some chunks. My best guess is that there's a 2nd South American leg (or a stop in the Atlantic somewhere - how cool would that be?) and another stop somewhere between Moscow and Australia.  ???

Kogs:
there is a middle east ???
