We intend to create a fun network of flights for any blind pilot to fly. As such, we purchase many different types of planes, and spread them around the world from Europe to North America and Canada, with room for further expansions. We aim to bring monthly events to you in the future, and ask that you work to enjoy yourselves as well as to benefit the airline. | We intend to create a fun network of flights for any blind pilot to fly.
