Claimed new world record


 

I hope this never happens to you.

Good news.? DHL found my two board sets in the package.? :-)
Bad news.??? DHL is taking them around the world.? :-(

Two different projects on PCBs from allpcb.com.? Still have
not arrived in PHX, but they are back in the states this morning,
Monday Nov 24, 2017.

Here is the trip they took:

1.? Zhejiang, China --> Los Angeles, CA?? 10 520 km (6 537 mi)
2.? Los Angeles, CA --> Leipzig, Germany 9 371 km (5 823 mi)
3.? Leipzig, Germany --> Cincinnati, OH? 7 142 km (4 437 mi)
4.? Cincinnati, OH --> Phoenix, AZ? 2 534 km (1 574 mi)

Leg 4 is predicted flight and has yet to happen.? :-)

Distance traveled:? 29 567 km (18 371 mi).

The diameter of the Earth is? 24 901 mi.? Thus a total trip
of 0.738 of a circle trip around the equator.? By plane.
First class.

No need for a plaque and no need for comments.? :-)
Good thing I have a sense of humor and have other
projects on the workbench.

Math is fun, show this to your grandkids.? Note.? I used
the three digit spacing used by the international scientific
community, as a comma is a decimal point in some
cultures.
