Alberto Porto and Andrea Venturini did the unthinkable. In 2024 they flew nonstop from Scotland to Canada in a two seat, Rotax powered Risen SuperVeloce aircraft. Flying 1,850 nm, in 11.5 hours and used 43 gallons of fuel. Andrea recounts this epic flight, recorded in Porto Aviation’s pavilion at AirVenture 2024. An amazing feat of planning, endurance and a testament to the aeronautical designs of Alberto Porto and his team.
