No, he is about an hour out of KJAX at the
moment. Flight aware got its panties in a wad when Bill flew thru the
international dateline. He flew from tomorrow to today and flight aware
went bonkers. They decided the flight was only for 9 hours when it was
actually for 33 hours. They carried him for a while after the time
expired, then decided to drop him altogether.
You can find him here:

I haven't seen any
progress past that area.

Bill Harrelson built a Lancair 4P with an IO550 engine last year. He
equipped it with long range fuel tanks and can carry 400 gal of fuel.
Starting a couple of day ago, he flew from KGUS(Peru, Indiana) to PHNL
(Honolulu, Hawaii),a distance of 4519 miles, took him
22 hrs 15 min, then
he flew PHNL (Honolulu, Hawaii)
to PGUM (Guam), a distance of 3846 miles,
took him 16 hours 16 minutes, and now he is flying PGUM (Guam)
to KJAX
(Jacksonville,
Fl). That will be a 32-33 hour flight. 7038 miles per airnav
and 8113 miles direct per flight aware non stop! He started out with 400
gal of gas.
Tail number is 6ZQ. Check him out on flight aware.
Bill is planning an around the world flight over both poles next.
