  • Solar Impulse

    After its historical flight across the USA, Swiss solar-powered aircraft Solar Impulse today returned to Switzerland on board of a Boeing 747 freighter. In February 2013, Cargolux had successfully flown Solar Impulse from Payerne, a Swiss military airfield, to the United States’ West Coast, from where the solar-powered aircraft was deployed for its ‘Across America’ mission from San Francisco to New York, including five stopovers on the way. In a unique, high-precision operation, the large Cargolux freighter landed and took off from the short runway at Payerne and had to be loaded on the runway itself, because the airfield’s small apron could not handle the large Boeing freighter.
