Good Luck and Clear Skies!
Will be following closer your flight plan.
Learn from that and maybe do it one day.
From Rio to my hometown would be just about another 1 1/2 hours on the RV.

Nice trip
Looking like an excellent adventure. Think you may be a bit ambitious on your turn and burn times once you leave North America and find they are all on island time but its vacation time so who cares. Good luck, will we watching posts.
Blue skies.
