Solar plane aiming for first round-the-world flight lands in India

‘It’s a privilege to fly in an aeroplane like that,’ says pilot Bertrand Piccard


The first round-the-world solar-powered flight landed in India on Wednesday, the second leg of a 35,000km journey seeking to demonstrate that flying long distances fuelled by renewable energy is possible.
The Solar Impulse 2 arrived in the west Indian city of Ahmedabad after a flight of about 15 hours over the Arabian sea from Muscat in Oman.
