East to Australia

Steve Fossett is about halfway around the globe with no landfalls for the rest of the scheduled course. You can see where he’s at on the Bud Light - Spirt of Freedom site.

It’s a smart route, closer to the South Pole than I'd realized, and as a result, shorter than an equatorial circumnavigation. Which raises the question, why didn’t he just start and finish in Anartica?
