Solar Impulse: The Great American Crossing

52MIN

Solar Impulse is the only airplane of perpetual endurance, able to fly day and night on solar power, without a drop of fuel. After achieving the first part of the World Tour, Swiss pilots Bertrand Piccard and André Borschberg took off from Hawaii in April 2016 to achieve the second part of their world tour via the USA. This film captures the heart of this epic crossing accomplished by the entire Solar Impulse team.
