A Historic Flight
The First to cross the atlantic ocean
In 1992, Francisco Pacheco -our Founder- decided to achieve what many had attempted before, and failed. He prepared a historic flight to cross the Atlantic Ocean with a McDonnell Douglas MD500D. Their first record was broken in early 1992, when the modified helicopter made the longest non-stop flight from Fort Lauderdale Executive (KFXE) to Maiquetia (SVMI) in 11 hrs, 42 min.
Their next step took them even farther; the crew underwent on their flight, which had to stop 4 times for re fueling, one of them in a modified cargo ship in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. After 33 hours of flight, the helicopter and its crew became the first to cross the Atlantic Ocean in a Helicopter. This flight inspired Francisco to share his spirit of adventure with younger pilots, to help them to achieve even greater heights; creating a flight school, Rotor School.
