I see now that he is very likely to run out of fuel.....
Perhaps a landing in Honolulu???

That looks like a possibility John, but I'm sure they're looking at all
scenarios at this point. If he can pick up some decent tail winds the problem of
the fuel discrepancy might be overcome.

Steve:
Any info yet on HF comm freqs for the Global Flyer?

No, I haven't seen any. I listened late afternoon and early evening to
11300 as
Global Flyer transited Egypt but heard nothing. He may have been asleep at
the
time and had the aircraft on auto-pilot. (although his website says he was
awake. He is traveling at a very high altitude, and ATC may not be
terribly
concerned about him).

The problem now will be, at least from here, is that the ATC frequencies
he
might possibly use will be difficult to hear propagationally, at least
from
here, though possibilities still exist.
