Would somebody be able to tell me the exact route of the London to Sydney air race?
Now that the Puss moth has been released I would like to recreate the journey.

Re: London to Sydney
From the book "The Great Air Race" by Arthur Swinson (1968), the route taken by C J Melrose in the Puss Moth was:
Mildenhall - Rome - Athens - Baghdad - Jask - Karachi - Calcutta - Rangoon - Singapore - Koepang - Darwin - Charleville - Melbourne
Hope this helps
