Interesting little cautionary tale.
The man who flew a hang glider over Mount Everest (something that "couldn't" be done), Angelo d’Amigo, and who also crossed the Sahara following the path of desert eagles, and crossed Siberia following Siberian cranes, all via non-powered flight, died in an airplane accident at an airshow in Italy on Sunday. He wasn’t piloting the craft.
D’Amigo’s last project was to release two condors he had been training to fly. He had previously soared over Aconcogua and picked up the fledgings during that journey.
Condolences to his wife and three children.
