MackSolo Team Update – Day 115 ✈️ 🌍
Konnichiwa こんにちは !!! After a 7 and 1/2 hour flight, Mack and Sharky have landed in #Chitose, #Japan 🇯🇵, having followed its coastline for a long 5h stretch. This is the 21st country on their solo flight around the world! Wooohoooooooo!!!! 🙏💪

We would like to thank the Japanese Civil Aviation Bureau (JCAB) for their extremely efficient turn-around on permits for Mack 🙏.

We would equally like to send special thanks the following associations and people for their invaluable help at making this happen 🙏: the Japan aeronautic association (JAA)
(http://www.aero.or.jp/english.html), AOPA JAPAN (https://www.aopa.jp/), the Experimental Aircraft League (EXAL)
(http://www.exal.info/), Pet air (https://petair.us/) and AeroDyne ( https://aerodyne.jp/)

Huge thank you also to Mack's supporters and followers who have in some way, shape or form, advised or connected us to the right people to bring the project forward on this 🙏.

Our most heartfelt thank you to everyone involved. Arigatou gozaimasu ありがとうございます 🙏

Weather permitting and all else going according to plan - we know how that goes, don't we 😅😂 - Mack will be making his way up North towards Alaska in the coming days! As you can see he has started wearing his protective immersion suit in case of a ditch in the increasingly colder waters. Thank you Viking Life-saving Equipment (SA) (Pty) Ltd for helping us to keep Mack as safe as possible!

Meanwhile, all posts of Mack's page, between day 88 and day 110, have still not been recovered, with no reaction from Facebook 😬. So last but not least, a huge thank you to Mack's sponsor ICDSoft for having had the foresight to back everything up here: macksolo.com/socialsync 🙏💪.
