I am amazed. This info via Bob, K3DJC. See their website including photos 
of the plane: <http://tam.plannet21.com/> . St. Johns, Newfoundland to near 
Alcock and Brown Monument, Round Stone Bog, Ireland! This was within 35 ft 
of the intended landing spot. Speed was 43-55mph. Pictures and telemetry 
data on website. Wow!
