Solar Impulse lands in Dayton

SOLAR IMPULSE 2 LANDS IN DAYTON

Dayton, 21 May 2016 – Solar Impulse 2 (Si2) landed at Dayton International Airport, Ohio, with André Borschberg at the controls, on 21 May at 9:56pm local time (UTC-4) after taking off from Tulsa International Airport, Oklahoma, the same morning at 4:22am local time (UTC-5). The flight, that took 16 hours 34 minutes and 692 miles (1'113 km) at an average speed of 41,76 mph (67.20 km/h) and maximum altitude of 21'000 feet (6'401 m), is part of the attempt to achieve the first ever Round-The-World Solar Flight, the goal of which is to demonstrate how modern clean technologies can achieve the impossible. As soon as possible, weather permitting, Bertrand Piccard will pilot Si2 to the next stop-over and continue the crossing of the United States.
