A Flight Around the Globe
Embark on a historic journey with our five-month global expedition in 2024, celebrating the centennial of the first flight around the world in 1924.
We honor this pioneering spirit by carrying a piece of the iconic plane 'The Chicago,' symbolizing its majestic flight across the globe anew.
Our voyage is not just a tribute to history but an exploration of the grandeur of 18th and 19th-century expeditions, resonating with Hubert Sagnières' recent publication, 'Daring French Explorations.' Each destination reflects the rich history of exploration, from groundbreaking scientific discoveries to significant historical events.
