More Boeing 707 routes for the Pan Am fans. One new unique route was a cross the pond southern edition from Rio to Johannesburg. Stay tuned for a variation on this southern route in the future with a stopping point you wouldn't expect. Also added some extensions within Africa to the Residence of Peace (Dar Es Salaam).

You decided to use the 707-120 for these new flights, when you said it was the 707-320. Could you please correct the equipment type?

Andrew, it's all yours, anytime! I just hit the dry land into FAOR and found the old ICAO code is FAJS(It changed Jan.2013). Good trip I had.
