The aeronautic year begins with a wonderful adventure, the one of Troy Bradley (USA) and Leonid Tiukhtyaev (RUS) on board Two Eagles, a gas balloon of 10,000 m3. Leaved from Saga (Japan), they landed about 6 days later with over 10,000 kilometers on the speedometer in the Mexican territory. Unfortunately for them, they were forced to land at less than 10 kilometers of the coast. As for Bertrand Piccard and André Borschberg, their adventure around the world aboard Solar Impulse is expected to begin in early March. And for Pilâtre de Rozier Organisation, the 14th edition of Lorraine Mondial Air Balloons® will be « Nowhere else ».
