Embark The The Mysterious Journey Of Voyager Flight 333 | MenTour Pilot

The Rutan Voyager took off on its record-setting endurance flight on this day back in 1986. The non-stop, non-refueling flight around the world lasted nine days. But did you know that before the Voyager became the globe-circling sensation, it showed up at Oshkosh? That’s right! Dick Rutan and Jeana Yeager brought it to EAA’s Annual Convention and Fly-In in 1984, only one month after its maiden flight. Take a look at the day we got to witness history before it even happened. Were you there? #avia

It happened #OTD, 30 years ago on Dec. 14, 1986 at #EdwardsAirForceBase - The Voyager, an ultra-long-range special-purpose aircraft constructed by Burt Rutan and piloted by Dick Rutan and Jeana Yeager, became the first aircraft to fly around the world without stopping or refueling. The Voyager, heavily laden with fuel, used more than 14,000 ft of the 15,000-ft main runway before it lifted into the air. It landed nine days later on Dec. 23.
