Around the World Trip in a LearJet

One of my friends who lives in Hawaii on Molokai Island whose job is to fly Japanese Tourists around the Hawaiian Islands in his own Amphibious Twin Engine aircraft sent me joking email at Christmas time 2015: He said, "Jon, if I win the lottery, I will buy a Lear Jet and as a unique Christmas Present, I will pick you and your wife up at the Santa Barbara airport near where you live in Lompoc and fly you anywhere you want around the world. Just give me the departure date and itinerary of what cities around the world you want to visit and we will be off." After careful consideration of where I would choose to go, I wrote this book about the dream trip of a lifetime for an old private pilot. Come along with us as we fly around the world in a LearJet starting from Santa Barbara, California, going to Florida, Washington DC, NYC, Malaga, Spain, London, Moscow, St Petersburg, Sydney, Shanghai, Taipei, and Peking. Then we returned through London and back to Santa Barbara.
