    Living at 34d43s 151d10e, I also hope for precision of the splash point!
    
    Realistically, I can see plenty of good sense in aiming for just south of
    Tasmania. Provided the entry is within half an orbit or so of target,
    north-east or south-west bound, not too much excitement should ensue.
    
    Absolutely vital is to avoid entry over North America - I'm sure the folks
    there would not be as tolerant of loud bangs and lights in the sky as
    Western Australians were some years ago, and the lawyers would have a picnic
    with suits for "I nearly died of fright" type stuff.
    
    Since my next relevant trans-pacific flight will be LA to Sydney early
    Monday 5th March US date, I'd like to request a reentry just off my track, a
    bit SSW of Hawaii, and when I'm awake to watch the show!
