The Flying Boat Adventure
1 x Grumman HU-16b Albatross, 4 x Pilots, Crew and Marketing specialists will attempt a 40,000km flight from Brooklyn - Hudson River, New York - USA to Brooklyn Airfield, Cape Town - South Africa.
The Adventure will include the crossing of 3 Continents from the Northern to Southern Hemisphere and we will attempt to complete this flight by ONLY landing and taking off in water to re-create the era of Flying Boats.
A 13-part TV Documentary hosted by a well known British Actor & personality, will allow viewers worldwide to experience the forgotten era, exploration and beauty that is only possible with one of these magnificent aircraft and to be fascinated by the interviews with pilots and passengers that used to travel on these long-gone flying "Passenger Liners". Ensuring maximum exposure, the adventure will take approximately 3 months to complete, ensuring a minimum of 3 days per location, allowing spectators the unique opportunity of inspecting the flying boat and even exploring the possibly of having a rare chance of a flight.
24 Countries will be visited with exotic destinations like Loch Ness, Channel Islands, the Thames, Lake Geneva, Monaco, Silcily, Crete, the Nile and the Great Lakes and the Serengeti in Africa forming the backdrop to this canvas.
A once-in-a-lifetime chance will be offered via this website, when 2 seats will be auctioned to the highest bidder/s, allowing the successful person/s to accompany us as crew and team-members and giving them the chance to experience an Adventure like no other. (This auction will be started in April 2009)
