très sympa ton reportage

Oui, très sympa, merci pour le partage

Cette nouvelle aventure sera toute aussi passionnante que les autres. !

A la lecture du livre de Bertand Picard concernant le tour du monde avec le Breitling Orbiter en 1999, je m’étais déjà passionné pour le personnage ainsi que pour l'utilisation des courants jets pour se déplacer.

Merci Philsinfo de nous permettre de suivre cette nouvelle aventure.

Aurais tu une idée de la zone de vie à l’intérieur ?

The 2013 Across America mission flights are scheduled to kick-off starting May 1st.

Itinerary: from San Francisco (California) to Phoenix (Arizona), to Dallas (Texas) to Saint Louis (Missouri) or Atlanta (Georgia) ending in Washington D.C. and New York City

We’ve had a few technical flights during the past week and all of them were successful – HB-SIA is officially mission ready. Only a few of them are left before the May 1st mission kick-off so sign up here if you want to be notified!

An open house took place at Moffett Airfield on Saturday April 20th and it was a great success. The tickets were sold out fast and the entire Solar Impulse team was excited to show off HB-SIA to curious guests.

This is it! The long awaited kickoff of the 2013 Across America mission is about to happen! It seems like the weather conditions are on our side for an early morning departure at 6 am PDT (UTC-7) tomorrow morning, Friday May 3rd from Moffett Airfield and a landing at Sky Harbor International Airport in Phoenix (AZ) sometime after midnight PDT (UTC-7).

Piloted by Bertrand Piccard, HB-SIA will fly southbound, west of Yosemite National Park, to Fresno and Bakersfield. It will then shift slightly west toward Lancaster and then Barstow. From there, Bertrand will get a chance to enjoy a similar landscape to what André experienced last year on his flight to Ouarzazate (Morocco) as he will fly over the Mojave Desert on his way to Phoenix.

This year’s mission is more than just a mission: it will be a symbolic crossing of the United States to raise awareness and promote clean technologies worldwide. With the kickoff of the 2013 Across America mission, Solar Impulse is launching a global movement of likeminded people ready for change – the “Clean Generation” movement.

Pilots André and Bertrand will be carrying your name – and the names of all Solar Impulse supporters -- in the cockpit, from California to New York. This is a great way to showcase the commitment of our supporters – but we also hope that many more people will join us.

Tell your friends and family about this opportunity to become part of this movement of change-makers who will virtually cross the United States! Tell your loved ones to sign up and become a supporter by forwarding this email!

Looking forward to taking off!

Solar Impulse Team
