Is it possible to do this on a conventional route nowadays?</font>

The same question was asked a while ago. Instinctively: I'd say yes. Seven transits is too many for the distance required to be covered (Some 23000 miles from memory). If you're willing to ignore MCTs; I'm sure with enough research you could find a route / schedule that would work.

Alex
