Moving on! -108

Thanks to the vigilance of our website visitors, we were informed that the Sling is moving, and we were surprised to find out the Mike & James were already en-route to the Seychelles. Due to a lot of admin hassles the guys felt it best to push on, and are now currently on their way to cover a distance of approximately 3,005km to Mahe Island, Seychelles, which should take them nearly 19½ hours. There is some bad weather along the way, so we will most probably see them fly around those weather patterns. Their departure from Sri Lanka was at 18:30 UTC.

Unfortunately the guys did not have any time to appreciate the beauty of Sri Lanka, but we do hope that they will have some proper time to rest on Mahe Island.
