What are the odds?

Thank you Lauren for you very generous donation. And thanks everyone for spreading the word - the blog hits have been going through the roof in the last 24-48 hours.

I've been tracking the on-time performance of our flights for almost 6 weeks and it's certainly sent the pulse racing on more than one occasion.


As of Friday, here's the stats regarding the on time performance.

8 out of the 38 days I have tracked have had a material flight delay. Yup, that means we would have been stranded had the mission been on one of those days.

1 out of the 5 Mondays within that period has also had a material delay - we would have been stranded in Brisbane.

So, this is a risky mission. There's a decent chance we won't be able to complete it as planned. That adds to the excitement. The biggest risks are the first and third flights.

And here's the flight schedule:
