Geocache Description:

The micro cache is hidden within 2.5 kilometres of the listed coordinates. G-EAOU Another Reel Acronym is the first cache by BFE with a name beginning with the letter G. The BFE plan for 2014 is to have caches hidden with names beginning with the numbers 0-9 and letters A-Z.


The Vickers Vimy, G-EAOU, (affectionately known as "God 'Elp All Of Us"), was flown by the brothers Ross and Keith Smith, together with mechanics Jim Bennett and Wally Shiers, to victory in the 1919 England to Australia Air Race. In the process, they became the first people ever to fly from England to Australia.



Near the listed coordinates on March 23 1920 the triumphant crew was welcomed home by an estimated crowd of 20,000 people at the aerodrome of Harry Butler and The Kauper Aviation Company.

The numbers represented by ABCDEFGHIJKLMNO required to solve the following puzzle can be found in the coordinates of a cache hidden on 20 Feb 2004 by Freddo, near the current location of The Vickers Vimy, G-EAOU.

The final location of the cache is South 34° CH.ACM East 138° IJ.(K+L)(F-G)E
